Press Release Author = Jeff Pescatello

Industry = Small Business

Press Release Summary = Jetcast is a unique offering and aims to break traditional
barriers and burdens, without requiring signup fees, fixed costs, or variable costs
for small and large broadcasters.

Press Release Body = "The biggest hurdle to date for advertising supported Internet
broadcasts has been the high cost of bandwidth," said Jeff Pescatello, co-founder of
MeTV Network, Inc. "Until today, if you used a content delivery network like Akamai
to deliver your Internet channel, you would pray your audience would not get too big
or watch too long. The cost of the bandwidth could crush you. Now, it doesn\'t
matter how many people watch or how long they watch. Your costs are fixed at zero",
said Pescatello.

The www.jetcast.com website, launched in alpha mode, serves as an aggregation point
for the best television programs, music, sports and entertainment on the Internet.
It will grow in functionality and content over the coming months. Any broadcaster
may use the free services to reach small, medium or even very large audiences using
Windows Media and other standard formats.

"The Jetcast service was developed by broadcasters for broadcasters. Broadcasters
can now utilize the Jetcast Server application to create live channels with either
an originating channel stream, a directory of media files, or a single media file.
Jetcast also has free advanced server applications and services for larger
broadcasters. There are no catches or gimmicks. The Jetcast service is an open
service", stated Jeff Pescatello, MeTV Network co-founder.

With the Jetcast protocol services, broadcasters can have their content on
Jetcast.com, place free or subscription channels on their own website, integrate
their own proprietary player designs with their Jetcast channel, use the standard
Jetcast player externally, or even open their channel and player for viral
marketing.

Jetcast streams utilize Jetcast\'s massive grid distribution technology to deliver
high quality audio and video to audiences worldwide. The Jetcast network is a
secure protocol for use by those who want to offer either free or subscription
channels to audiences. Jetcast is a unique offering and aims to break traditional
barriers and burdens, without requiring signup fees, fixed costs, or variable costs
for small and large broadcasters.
