CD PLAYRIGHT'S COMBI for CDR Package; Assists MIS Managers, Individuals and Custom CDR Publishers in Recovery of Data While Reducing Media Failure.

SHAWNEE, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 26, 1998--CD PLAYRIGHT announced today that CD/DVD PLAYRIGHT will begin offering its patented optical disk repair kits and Proprietary CDR Protectant "Quick Shield" to Corporate Accounts targeting MIS managers in a new bundle called COMBI for CD, DVD and CDR media.

Each COMBI package will feature 3 bottles of Quick Shield & 3 all format Optical Disk Repair Kits. CD PLAYRIGHT's patent describes the method, while providing the products and practice for removing scratches from polycarbonate based optical media. The primary cause of disk failure is scratches caused by mishandling and accidents.

Quick Shield sprays directly on any optical disk providing a transparent shield which fights the effects of the average user environment. http://www.cdplayright.com

In the past, CD PLAYRIGHT has focused on developing its business in consumer markets. Growing awareness of the necessity for error recovery in departments who are producing custom ROMs has alerted the company to this new market.

According to David Whitesel, Dir. of US operations, "Our experience in the Game and Movie rental market has convinced us of the need to provide a solution to the Custom CDR marketplace. Corporations burning custom ROMs, have high fall out rates during production and high customer service rates after distribution. We are recommending a process where all disks are treated prior to burning with our proprietary formula Quick Shield.

"Early reports are indicating that disks treated previous to writing are not having the same high failure rates as those not treated. The estimated cost of treating disks with Quick Shield before burning will fall under .057 apiece. This low rate, combined with the necessity for custom ROM makers to reduce disk failures both pre and post distribution makes the cost benefit trial of the entire process compelling. Each 4 ounce bottle will treat approximately 100 disks and takes approximately 8 to 10 seconds to apply.

"The COMBI bundle features 3 Patented Repair Kits for all formats of Optical disks. Each Repair Kit will come equipped with six polishes and six finishes which will allow a department the luxury of repairing virtually any optical media under their roof. We will begin processing Corporate orders at our web site immediately. The COMBI pack provides enough materials to demonstrate the effectiveness of these products to the user community."
