DMDS: Digital Media Distribution System[edit]

The Digital Media Distribution System (DMDS) is a patented technology platform of YANGAROO Inc.

YANGAROO, powered by DMDS, is a secure distribution tool for audio and video media via the internet. Systems like DMDS make it possible for broadcasters, TV advertisers, and post-production companies to move away from physical media like DigiBeta tapes to digital file-based workflows.

The DMDS service supports the following :

  • Broadcasting music videos
  • Distributing television advertisements
  • Distributing award show content and voting
  • Distributing music to television and radio platforms

YANGAROO Music provides programmers, broadcasters, journalists, and other industry professionals the ability to preview and download pre-release media from music professionals, including record labels and independents.[1]
