Native Android Application Built By Samsung Using 7digital's Open API Platform

LONDON, October 20, 2010 - 7digital, the leading digital media company, and Samsung, the consumer
electronics global leader, have partnered to develop a unique digital music
experience on the new Samsung GALAXY Tab. Developed using 7digital's API, the
native music application enables users to easily search, discover, preview,
purchase and download tracks via the store's powerful user interface. The
store is optimised for the GALAXY Tab's 7-inch screen and Android 2.2
operating system.

"The partnership with 7digital has enabled Samsung to create a digital
music experience tailored to meet the needs of GALAXY Tab users," according
to Samsung. "The power of 7digital's open APIs combined with their extensive
music catalogue instantly gives GALAXY Tab users access to one of the most
comprehensive music services in the world, allowing them to quickly and
easily search, discover, preview and purchase tracks and albums directly on
their GALAXY Tab."

The store application will be pre-installed on devices in 30 European
countries and North America. Tracks are available in the MP3 format with the
standard format being 320kbps MP3.

the creation of the music service on the incredible new GALAXY Tab
illustrates the flexibility of 7digital's open technology and geographical
reach. The deep integration of our APIs within the GALAXY Tab music
application, combined with our extensive catalogue of MP3 music, provides a
fantastic user experience that makes it simple to discover and purchase
music."
