Stickam Launches PayPerLive Community Platform, Giving Fans Inside Access to Favorite Artists

LOS ANGELES, CA, Nov 02 (MARKET WIRE) --
Stickam.com, the pioneer of live streaming video and the largest live
community on the Internet, today introduced the beta version of its
community platform, a new level of PayPerLive that enables artists to
construct fan networks under their own domain names. The platform allows
entertainers to leverage fans for promotions and create a revenue stream
from live chats, premium videos, exclusive online concerts and other paid
events.

Building on Stickam.com's PayPerLive service, the community platform
creates a personalized fan-based community that gives users access to
everything from live chats to premium concert viewings, all powered by
Stickam.com's back-end technology.

The first artist to utilize Stickam.com's community platform is thenewno2,
an alternative rock band led by Dhani Harrison. With Harrison's
involvement in "The Beatles: Rock Band" music video game, as well as the
band's current first-ever North American tour with Wolfmother, thenewno2
was looking for a way to interact directly with fans looking to stay
updated on current and future events.

"We are excited to get to be a part of this," said Dhani Harrison, singer
/ multi-instrumentalist for thenewno2. "Stickam's concept lets us create
something that's all our own to give to our fans. It's a new kind of
platform for us to share our vision that is really relevant to today's
audiences, and it gives us another way to reach people."

On top PayPerLive's ticketing system for live events, the community
platform also allows artists to offer subscription-based access for fans,
providing different levels of content based on their preference. The host
has the option of providing their community site as a 'freemium' (free
plus premium) or premium service only. There are a number of options
hosts can explore to set the premium subscriptions.

"We have our fingers on the pulse of the evolving music industry and are
excited to be at the forefront of this change with the launch of the
community platform, which helps musicians and entertainers alike reach
their fans and sustain their art with a hassle-free service," said Steven
Fruchter, CEO of Stickam.com. "Fans are able to become part of a
community that their favorite acts create just for them. By implementing
the site, artists can interact with their fans in a more intimate and
controlled way -- providing a new outlet for the music industry in the
digital millennium age."

The community platform will soon extend beyond the entertainment industry
to cater to the education space by supporting online classes and how-to
guides. The next version of the platform will also offer video on demand,
fan forums, widgets and a points system for fans to buy and redeem various
items through the sites.

About thenewno2:

Using a unique and innovative combination of digital beats, heavy guitars
and an arsenal of studio confectionary, the band creates an eerie sound
terrain on their debut YOU ARE HERE; the 15 swaggering tracks play like a
news ticker scrolling across the cultural landscape. Created in London and
Los Angeles and heavily influenced by the darkness of the world outside,
YOU ARE HERE filters apocalyptic dread, so that by the end, light shoots
through the cracks, and the only answer is hope.

thenewno2's sets at this year's Coachella and Lollapalooza festivals were
received with shining accolades. The band is about to embark on their
first-ever North American tour, in support of Australian rock band
Wolfmother. The tour kicks off October 29th at the House of Blues in
Dallas, TX. A triumphant residency at Los Angeles' Key Club drew
at-capacity crowds thanks to critical acclaim and enthusiastic word of
mouth. Singer/multi-instrumentalist Dhani Harrison has graced the pages
of Rolling Stone multiple times including the magazine's Hot Issue. The
band appeared as one of the final guests on the Late Show with Conan
O'Brien in February. thenewno2 is joined for live shows by Jonathan
Sadoff on keyboards/guitar/vocals, Jeremy Faccone on guitar/vocals, Nick
Fyffe on bass and Frank Zummo on drums.
