ActiveCore Signs Ring Tone Distribution Agreements with BMI and ASCAP


(CelebrityAccess News Service) – IVP Technology Corp., d.b.a. ActiveCore Technologies Inc., has signed agreements with Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI) and the Association of Songwriters Composers and Publishers (ASCAP) for royalty payments on the sale of ring tones and other forms of music on its demographically focused recessgames.com portal. Ring tones are digitized melodies that play on wireless phones in lieu of a traditional ring.

Brian MacDonald, chairman and CEO of ActiveCore said, "We want our revolutionary new game site, Recess Games, to stake out its place as one of the leading wireless entertainment portals in the world. Signing comprehensive agreements with ASCAP and BMI, the two largest U.S. performing rights groups, positions recessgames.com to be the focus for distribution of ring tone versions of millions of BMI and ASCAP represented songs."

Recess Games is ActiveCore's online community dedicated to games and entertainment for mobile phones. Scheduled to launch in the next few weeks, Recess Games will feature downloadable games in various genres, online competitions, ring tones, chat facilities and more. –by Bob Grossweiner and Jane Cohen
