    Shipping since December, HD VMD discs and players stand to
revolutionize the high-definition disc market, providing consumers with the
best possible HD experience. HD VMD's ground-breaking innovation is its
patented multi-layer disc, which allows for the utilization of proven red
laser technology to provide high definition, versus blue laser technology
that competitors are forced to use due to disc space limitations. With only
one laser (red), HD VMD players can upconvert existing DVD collections for
better viewing quality, as well as play true high definition content.

    "We are excited to be delivering upon our promise to deliver high
quality, affordable high definition to consumers," said Alex Potter,
director of U.S. operations, NME. "We remain committed to delivering great
HD products and compelling content to the global consumer market."

    NME also this week announced its worldwide distribution deal with SFM
Entertainment for the release of rare and classic film and TV titles never
before seen in HD on NME's disc format. NME HD VMD players are also
currently shipping to Australia and Europe.

    HD VMD combines the best industrial opto-electronics and disc
technologies, bringing together established DVD red-laser production
infrastructure and break-through multilayer discs technology to deliver its
maximum-HD picture. HD VMD red laser multilayer disc plans include storage
of up to 30 GB of content on a single side disc.

    NME is a U.S. publicly listed company headquartered in London with
Offices worldwide including Los Angeles.
