NEW YORK - Mediaport Entertainment Inc. announced in a news release an agreement to offer consumers music from EMI's catalog through Mediaport's retail kiosks, MediaATMs and its Web site.
Mediaport's MediaATMs are being deployed at nearly 40 universities, 15 military bases, and at two Fortune 500 retailers. Mediaport has also signed agreements with Brazin Ltd., one of Australia's top specialty store retailers, and NeoProducts to deploy Mediaport's MediaATMs internationally.
