PopCatcher and Electronics World-Leader, Kenwin Industrial, Introduce New Music Discovery Product

Friday January 11 7:43 AM

PopCatcher, empowering consumers to discover new music and artists on the radio and on the Internet, today announced that Kenwin Industrial of Hong Kong will include and distribute its technology as part of their 2008 product line for the European markets. This follows the announcement that PopCatcher's technology has been nominated as an honoree for the CES 2008 Innovation Design and Engineering award.

"Kenwin's reputation as a manufacturer of high quality, innovative audio products for the European market supports our growth plans," said Jakob Berg, CEO of PopCatcher. "Built on our unprecedented success in Scandinavia, this new market outreach highlights a large consumer demand that makes radio not only significant, but a key component to music discovery."

Kenwin will begin to include the PopCatcher music discovery system in their 2008 product line, which will include a stand-alone iPod dock, mini Hi-Fi system with iPod dock and a kitchen radio. These products will be sold throughout Europe, initially in Germany and Scandinavia, followed by other markets.

"As a leader in the audio marketplace, we are excited to offer consumers a unique way to interact with all outlets of music," said Wallace Cheung, director of Kenwin Industrial. "By featuring PopCatcher, we've melded together two of the most popular formats for music, FM Radio and MP3, making it convenient for our customers to choose the way they want to listen, discover and enjoy music."

Kenwin's PopCatcher-integrated products will be on display during CES at the Kenwin Industrial booth, located at the Hilton #52001, as well as the Best of Innovation exhibit in the North Hall, where PopCatcher has been recognized by the CEA.

Since its inception in 2000, PopCatcher has revolutionized the way consumers discover new music through the medium of radio. Its patented technology analyzes radio transmissions to distinguish between speech, music and commercials and is bundled in numerous existing formats like home stereos, clock radios, and mobile phones. The Sweden-based company enables consumers to automatically download radio station programs, leaving only a fresh, exciting digital play list every time.
