Press Release Summary: Tactics for Dealing with Pirates Ranging from the
Sophisticated Knock Off Market to the At -Home User Downloading an Illegal Copy

Press Release Body: POINT ROBERTS, WA and DELTA, BC - November 16, 2007-
www.DigitalMediaStocks.com, an investor and industry portal for the digital media
sector within Investorideas.com, reports on the problem of piracy and the solutions
available in technology and enforcement. According to recent reports from the MPAA,
film theft costs foreign and domestic distributors, retailers and others $18 billion
a year. As the industry pushes for new technology, new legislation and law
enforcement, the pirates continue to show no fear as evidenced by the recent
flooding of the underground DVD copy of \"American Gangster\".

The industry recognizes the need for advancement in technology to stop the
sophisticated thieves and enforcement to remind the average online user that anyone
who sells, acquires, copies or distributes copyrighted materials without permission
is in fact a pirate and can be charged accordingly.

USA Video Interactive Corp. (OTCBB: USVO; TSX: US.V; Berlin: USF.BE; Frankfurt:
USF.F) has been working closely with Hollywood, with a major studio signing an
agreement to use their MediaEscortT anti-piracy product.

MediaEscort is a software application that resides on customers\' video server and
automatically and seamlessly embeds SmartMarks (invisible forensic information in
every frame of video content) during Internet delivery.

Mr. Patrick Gregston, Business Development for USA Video Interactive Corp. commented-
"The technology provides proof courts need to protect intellectual property rights.
Attempts to prohibit or prevent human nature from manifesting are likely to put the
industry in an unenviable position. What we do want to do is secure the marketplace
so that transactions return benefits to those that took risk in making the product
available."

According to the MPAA the demographic profile of the average pirate is male, between
the ages of 16 and 24 and lives in an urban area, while college students in the
United States, South Korea and Hungary contribute the most to each country\'s
individual loss.

The countries where movie piracy is occurring most prominently are China, Russia,
Britain, France, Spain, Brazil, Italy, Poland and Mexico.

US Government is hearing the industry's cry, with the recently introduced
Intellectual Property Enforcement Act of 2007.

According to a recent release from the MPAA, Chairman and CEO Dan Glickman said he
was pleased to see the introduction of Senators Leahy and Cornyn\'s \"Intellectual
Property Enforcement Act of 2007\" and encouraged by their commitment to protect
America\'s intellectual content from theft. The MPAA serves as the film industry\'s
primary agency for combating copyright theft.

\"I applaud Senators Leahy and Cornyn\'s leadership in working to ensure that adequate
resources are available to enforce our nation\'s intellectual property laws,\"
Glickman said.
\"Every year 141,000 jobs are lost in the film industry alone due to piracy. This
legislation is a solid step that will help keep America\'s economy strong and I look
forward to working with the chairman, Senator Cornyn and the Judiciary Committee on
this important issue.\"

revision and always will".
