CyberOptic Group Announces First Online Media Distribution Platform for Small Businesses

CyberOptic Group, LLC, a Florida-based Internet technologies company, today announced what it believes to be the first fully automated media distribution platform for small to mid-sized businesses including independent musicians, film artists, distance learning, corporate training and for other content owners seeking to securely sell digital audio and video files.

Digital Rights Director, which was originally launched in 2003 as a Digital Rights Management (DRM) licensing service, is now a complete turn-key media distribution platform that gives media owners everything needed to securely sell digital audio and video files - all controlled through a user-friendly web interface and all for less than $100 per month.

Digital Rights Director customers are given their own "Online Media Store" with a web-based administration panel that allows the media owner to easily customize the store, edit or create "media rules", and manage media, customers, newsletters and orders.

The service allows a content owner to simply browse their PC for an available media file, assign a title, description, category, and delivery methods depending on whether the media should be streamed or downloaded.

Then the content owner assigns the media rules and price options he wishes to assign and with the click of the "Submit" button, the media file is automatically uploaded, packaged, DRM protected, and immediately made available in an included eCommerce web storefront with the assigned rule options.

The media rules enforce the guidelines under which a purchaser is allowed to use the media, and for a media file to be uploaded once, but sold with multiple rule and pricing options. For example, a video may be uploaded a single time, but sold with 1-play, 10-plays or unlimited plays option and each option could have its own price.

"This is unlike any other service we are aware of," says Jonathan Castleman, President of CyberOptic Group and former professional musician himself, "Customers get their own online storefront on their own domain, they get to determine their own delivery and playback options, set their own prices, and collect and keep their own money."

"All the media is protected against unauthorized access and distribution and all a customer needs to understand is how to fill out a simple web form." Castleman added.

Digital Rights Director comes with literally everything needed to quickly start selling audio & video files securely online including a web hosting account with a dedicated IP address, Windows streaming server for streaming media files, a robust eCommerce storefront, and DRM packaging and license delivery all available through a easy-to-use web interface.

The service is priced at $99.95 per month with no long term commitments and there is a 100% money-back guarantee if cancelled in the first thirty days.
