ORLANDO, FL, June 5, 2006: Today, The 9thXchange disclosed plans for a launch of its Beta website, www.9thX.com, on September 4, 2006. The release date will mark a milestone in the development process that started over a year ago.

The Beta site will allow consumers for the first time anywhere to legally buy and sell all types of digital media. Additionally, content providers will capture royalties on each transaction, which provides the essential end to end solution missing from today's sites like iTunes and YouTube.

The 9thXchange's Beta site will also allow content providers to easily upload their content into their own storefronts to create a one of a kind, fully-functional marketplace.

"In this business, timing is everything," said John Bonaccorso, President and CEO of The 9thXchange. "I envisioned The 9thXchange concept years ago, but knew we had to wait to deploy our site until the time was right for the market. In fact, sites like MySpace, YouTube, and iTunes have actually helped us educate the consumer over the past six months. I believe the digital market will explode in 2007 and The 9thXchange will be there to capitalize on it.".
