eMUSIC TOPS 250,000 SUBSCRIBERS

Leading Retailer of MP3s Continues to Gain Momentum;

Largest Music Service Focusing On 25-Year-Old+ Music Consumers

NEW YORK and LONDON, Jan. 22, 2007 – eMusic, the world’s largest retailer of independent music and world’s second-largest digital music service after iTunes, today announces that it has surpassed 250,000 subscribers, only four months since hitting the 200,000 subscriber mark. The benchmark comes as eMusic continues to hit new milestones in growth and momentum, including its December announcement of the sale of 100 million downloads in three years and its launch across the European Union in September, 2006 -- solidifying its position as the leading retailer of MP3s and as the most successful music site servicing the 25-and-older demographic.

“eMusic’s spectacular growth demonstrates the strength of our business model and the value of our service,” said eMusic President and CEO David Pakman. “We’ve shown that whether in Boston, Birmingham or Berlin, when you help consumers discover groundbreaking music and offer it at a great value in a format that plays on any device, you sell a lot of it. We’ve also proven that there’s a significant customer segment that’s underserved by iTunes and other music services, and eager to explore the riches of music outside mainstream pop and hip-hop.”

With deep relationships with the world’s top independent labels, guidance from the best music editorial experts and a passionate music community, eMusic caters to music fans aged 25+.
