 PALO ALTO, Calif., June 30 /PRNewswire/ -- In response to the exploding
demand for music on the Internet, a new company was launched today that
expects to pioneer the market for online music delivery, or "downloadable"
recordings (music delivered to consumers through a file transfer over the
Internet).  The new company, which is called GoodNoise Corporation (OTC
Bulletin Board: GDNO), is the first record company to focus on the Internet as
the
primary platform for the sale and electronic delivery of music.  GoodNoise was
founded earlier this year by a unique group of entrepreneurs from the
technology and music industries and is backed by an impressive advisory board
that includes well-known artists, and technology and music industry leaders.
