Digital Innovations® and Roxio® Partner in Retail Promotion for Launch of New PhotoDR™

PhotoDR™ and PhotoSuite® a Perfect Pairing

Chicago, Illinois - (July 2, 2003) - Digital Innovations, the makers of The SkipDR®, the global standard for disc repair, and Roxio (NASDAQ: ROXI), The Digital Media Company, who leads the way in optical recording have joined forces in a retail promotion for the launch of PhotoDR, a new patented scratch repair device for photo CDs. PhotoDR is being introduced in North American markets with an exclusive, free in-pack trial CD of Roxio's popular PhotoSuite 5 Platinum photo editing software.

The increasing popularity of digital cameras, archiving and sharing digital images on CDs, or ordering photo CDs with film processing has created a new consumer headache: lost images due to scratched discs. With the launch of PhotoDR this July, digital photo fans can now revive unreadable CDs and protect their photo memories for a lifetime. The new PhotoDR utilizes the same patented disc resurfacing technology used daily in millions of households around the world. The PhotoDR removes most scratches, abrasions or other surface damage that can make image files unreadable, thereby protecting irreplaceable digital photos. It's safe and simple to operate and works in about a minute.

For an MSRP of $29.95, consumers who purchase PhotoDR will, for a limited time, also receive a trial of PhotoSuite 5 Platinum (MSRP $49.95), the only photo editing software that features Easy CD Creator® burning technology. The trial software allows consumers to easily organize, edit, get creative and burn their digital images to CD or Video CD for 30 days, after which they can purchase an access code that unlocks the disc for a reduced price.

"The pairing of the Roxio software with PhotoDR is a natural one, said Jonathan Baskin, Vice President of Marketing, Digital Innovations. "The addition of PhotoSuite 5 will give our consumers an opportunity to do more with their digital images, illustrating the value of saving and sharing their photos on CD."

"There's an immense amount of synergy across the entire product line of Roxio and Digital Innovations," commented Scott Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing, Roxio. "Burning is at the core of digital media, so their disc repair devices are a must have for our audience."

The new PhotoDR also repairs music CDs, movie DVDs, video game discs, and computer software and data CDs, making it a necessary accessory for most consumers. It can be purchased for $29.99 wherever digital cameras and accessories are sold.

The SkipDR (www.skipdoctor.com) is the world standard for optical disc repair. Invented and introduced in late 1999 by Digital Innovations, a Chicago-based consumer electronics company (www.digitalinnovations.com), the patented device is available as the SkipDR, GameDR, DVDDR, DataDR and PhotoDR. Over 3 million devices have been sold through more than 30,000 retail storefronts worldwide. The SkipDR is made in the U.S.
