Toronto, Canada (Billboard Publicity Wire) December 12, 2006 -- Musicrypt Inc. (TSX-V: MCT, OTC: MCYPF), the leader in secure digital media distribution, today announced the successful completion of a pilot program with The Gary Group, the leading advertising agency for the recording industry, based in Los Angeles, California.
The intensive three-month program involved the secure digital delivery of radio spots to major market radio stations across the US via Musicrypt's patented Digital Media Distribution System ("DMDS"). The 30 and 60-second ad spots included Sheryl Crow's "Wildflower", Diamond Rio's "Greatest Hits II" and Indigo Girls' "Despite our Differences".
"The pilot program just completed with Musicrypt's DMDS has proved to us, that this patented technology can deliver our client's advertising in a more timely, effective and efficient manner," said Dick Gary, Chairman, The Gary Group. "We look forward to using DMDS to securely deliver broadcast quality radio and TV spots for our clients in a way that will no doubt revolutionize our industry. We will continue our work with Musicrypt to further enhance and refine DMDS for the advertising sector."

It is estimated that there are 40 million national radio spot deliveries annually in the United States alone", said Cliff Hunt, Chairman and COO of Musicrypt Inc. "By partnering with the Gary Group, we aim to introduce the advertising sector to our unique technology and change the paradigm of advertising spot delivery to both radio and television."
