B2Digital Successfully Adds Innovative Broadcast System to Hotel Movie Networks Capability Thursday May 12, 10:00 am ET
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., May 12, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- B2Digital, Inc. (OTC BB:BTWO.OB - News), a Pay-per-View, Broadcast-TV-Free-to-Guest and Digital Service provider, announced that it has installed innovative new broadcast technology into the Hotel Movie Networks Media Delivery system. ADVERTISEMENT
The Satellite Reception system connected to the B2 Networks Digital Internet broadcast system was developed and installed in a joint project between B2 Networks and Hotel Movie Networks in Mesa, Arizona.
The System was used successfully to receive a broadcast Hockey Championship Series Game, produced by B2 Networks, via satellite from Anchorage Alaska. The video stream was digitally broadcast in real-time from the facility in Mesa via the Internet, to B2 Networks Pay-per-View customers who watched the game live on two continents.
Greg P. Bell, Chairman and CEO of B2 Networks said, ``It was a natural choice to integrate our system with B2 Digital's Hotel Movie Networks because of their advanced understanding of satellite and broadcasting systems. This is only the start of the many synergies that are being developed for digital broadcasting between the two companies.''
The new broadcast systems increase the capability of B2 Digital to broadcast live sporting events, concerts and events into broadband connected hotels and guest rooms.
During the recent broadcast of the hockey game fans were able to view the game live in hotel rooms on their laptops connected to the hotels broadband connections.
``We are pleased to be able to provide hotel partners with unique live sports and events that are expected to create increased demand for our broadband services and products,'' said B2Digital President Robert Russell.

The company has increased their capital structure substantially over the last year in an effort to raise enough working capital to role out their aggressive business model. This has over the last year decreased shareholder value to a degree of the sub-penny level. Obviously management has no intention of devaluing the shareholders of their loyal investments but to offer a long-term growth plan that we will outline here. We decided to get involved with B2 Digital at these levels and saw the opportunity to purchase shares at very much so bottomed-out levels as well as our investor audience has and continues to do so. As per the latest public filing the company has “Indicated the number of shares outstanding of each of the issuer's classes of common equity, as of the latest practicable date: 291,370,939 shares of common stock, par value of $.001 per share, as of February 10, 2005.” We are currently just above our company lows and we have been told that there is no need to dilute the company anymore due the fact that cash flows are forth coming to fund the company. As per our ushering the company has canceled an equity line with Dutchess Private Equity Group. Although we have seen a rough year we need to remind ourselves that oaks grow strong in contrary winds and diamonds are made under pressure.
As we have previously mentioned one of the key factors that has created our main enthusiasm is something that was mentioned in a previous filing stating:
ISSUANCE OF SHARES TO B2NETWORK, INC. / GREG P. BELL During the quarter ended December 31, 2004 the Company issued 10,000,000 restricted shares of common stock pursuant to a future employment agreement with Greg P. Bell.
Ok so what does a large sum of shares issued have to due with the company and just who is Mr. Bell? Could you imagine if a board member of Exxon or Halliburton were to decide to join the company of Titan Oil and Gas and aid in the development of new properties. The value of the company would explode overnight. Well in this case we are getting a major executive from a renowned company but in a different industry. Greg P. Bell used to be a major VP of the NYSE giant Q -- Qwest Communications International, Inc.
Mr. Bell is one of the early pioneers and entrepreneurs in Digital Media and has been working in the field for over 10 years. He was involved in the early creation of the technologies and algorithms that allowed analog media to be transformed into digital bits and compressed data streams and created specific business units to capitalize on these new technologies at NewTek, Scientific Atlanta, and Compression Labs. Additionally, he was one of the initial Vice Presidents of Business Development for Qwest Communications where he developed Qwest’s Digital Media Company, Slingshot Networks and then became EVP/COO of Slingshot. He has worked with prestigious clients in the entertainment and sports community such as Oscar DeLaHoya, Barbra Streisand, Tennessee Titans, Los Angeles Lakers, LA Kings, LA Avengers, Arena Football League, AOL and FOX. His clients and companies have capitalized on Mr. Bell’s knowledge of the world of digital entertainment and sports distribution.
So he is a powerhouse, to what extend is Mr. Bell going to get involved? Well, the only light shed on this is from a previous PR released by BTWO: BEVERLY HILLS, CA-- (MARKET WIRE)--Dec 10, 2004 -- B2Digital, Inc. (OTC BB:BTWO.OB - News), an international provider of Pay per View and Digital Services, announced today that it has entered into an operational agreement with B2 Networks LLC of Las Vegas, Nevada. According to the agreement, B2 Networks CEO Greg P. Bell will begin operating the Digital Business plan for the company. Mr. Bell is recognized as one of the early pioneers and entrepreneurs of digital media technology with more than 20 years experience in the field.
B2Digital CEO Robert Russell stated, "We are extremely pleased to benefit from the expertise of Mr. Bell and his team at B2 Networks. B2 Networks has the contacts, marketing and technology knowledge to take us to the next level." Mr. Bell’s team consists of a former VP, COO and individuals who are responsible for putting together some of the first high-quality video on demand, all of who branched right off of Qwest multi-billion dollar business.
The question now is what would high-caliber players like these four want to do with a small cap company listed on the OTCBB? The answer in our opinion is they see opportunity and value. What plans do they have for a company like this, new contracts, and a move to a more prestigious exchange, NYSE, AMEX?! The possibilities are endless and you can believe our imaginations are running wild.
The company has made some very serious strides toward these possible goals: BTWO owns 10% of the fabulous four’s company B2 Networks shown here @ www.b2now.com. Strategic alliances have been made with some of the leaders in this industry:
B2Digital Expands Digital Content for Hotels; New Collection Includes More Than 8,500 films. B2Digital and B2 Networks Team to Deliver Digital Services to Multi-Dwelling Units and Hotel Rooms Worldwide. Media Pioneer to Head B2Digital's Operations. B2Digital Signs Letter of Intent to Provide Digital Streaming to Videomoviehouse.com; Increases Market Share in $22 Billion Home Entertainment Industry. B2Digital Continues Expansion of Digital Services Platform Worldwide. PowerLinx, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: PWLX), the leader in power line communication products, has entered into a marketing and distribution agreement with B2 Networks, LLC to distribute the new B2 Digital Services Product Line.
You know the management and the current events of the company and I am sure see the potential forthcoming within this stock but take a look directly into what the video on demand technology is all about. Three years in the making has produced:
Point-to-Point Wireless Local Loop internet connectivity in each hotel room through the B2 Wireless Access Point (B2WAP), which will connect to the in-room Hotellinktv.com for laptop users, and the B2 Digital TV set top box and handheld remote control for in-room television. The agreement pending with VMHVF outlines how: “Videomoviehouse.com subscribers order and view movies on-demand, directly into their homes via B2Digital's set-top-box equipment. Based on its current subscriber base, VMH will target sales of B2Digital's service to more than several hundred thousand consumers.”
The target Hotel market our competition resides in such as LodgeNet (LNET) and On Command is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Media Corporation (LMCB) is literally untouched with over half or 2 million of the hotels in the U.S. not equipped with featured services. Our installation costs are less then half of that of our direct competition and our technology is surpassing what they can offer. This allows BTWO to implement its aggressive business model going after major mid-large size hotel chains and offering our services to them. VMHVF is considered to be a Mini-Netflix who is a major movie supplier in Canada. These types of companies are a direct threat to that of Netflix core competency and even now they are trying to enter into the VOD markets to differentiate themselves. As seen in the recent article by Fool.com “The Fight for Video On Demand”: “Indeed, when it comes to VOD, Netflix's main weakness may be the extent to which the movie studios seem interested in dominating the digital transmission of movies. Then again, the movie studios failed to dominate the theater business, so why cede the VOD market?” “Netflix is free cash flow positive and sits on $135 million cash and a high-priced stock. It could certainly turn to acquisitions to enhance its VOD opportunity. Meanwhile, as it looks for ways to exploit new technologies, the company continues to grow its traditional market (including internationally). This one could have a happy ending.” What would this mean for a small company like BTWO? Are the big boys going to see their market share come under fire from an emerging company with an armada of Qwest Communications staff on their back? Would the likes of NetFlix, LogdeNet and OnCommand try to challenge B2 Digital or form alliances? We have better technology and inexpensive installations, what would you do if you were them?
