MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 3, 2006-- EZ2 Companies, Inc. (OTCBB:EZTO) announces that it has acquired an exclusive license to use EMEPE3.COM's Digital Music Distribution Technology. EMEPE3.COM, the leading online music provider for Latin America, was created in 1998. After successfully growing into the largest online music website for the Hispanic market, and launching the first ever Digital Music Store in Spanish, the company was sold in 2004 to a German Media Group. The new owners decided to focus on the European market starting 2006, which made the EMEPE3.COM proprietary technology available for licensing for the first time. "We have been working on developing and improving this technology for several years," said Anthony M. Weaver, CEO of EMEPE3.COM. "We always had the advantage of having our own exclusive technology, which was also one of the few that was accepted and approved by the major music companies for being reliable and secure." EZ2 Companies will use the technology to create EZ2Music.com, the company's first downloadable music website. "We wanted to have the best possible technology to develop EZ2Music.com, and now we have it," said Otto Bethlen, CEO of EZ2 Companies. "The online music business grew 350% during 2005, and represents now about 4% of the total music market. We want to have a cut of that, and we believe we have the tools now to make it happen." EZ2 Companies already has a couple potential candidates to run the EZ2Music division. The ideal candidate will have several years of experience in the music business, online music licensing, and digital downloads. "We know what we are looking for and we already have two final candidates," said Bethlen. "We will make the decision in the next few days and it will be announced officially next week."
