Wurld Media Announces Nationwide Peer Impact College Tour

Buzz Teams to Promote Legal Peer-to-Peer Sharing on College Campuses

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y., April 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Wurld Media today announced their nationwide Peer Impact college tour, which promotes the use of the legal peer-to-peer program among students. The four-week tour will introduce Peer Impact, the company's peer-to-peer download service that offers members cash back for sharing legal content, to students at 20 campuses across the country. Representatives will distribute information, educate students on the service, and offer them entry into the Peer Impact beta, which is currently in an "invite only" phase. Wurld Media plans to open the Peer Impact beta to the public in June.

The Peer Impact college tour initiative took shape following Peer Impact's successful participation at several university-hosted events this year, which were organized by the schools to educate students about legal alternatives to file-sharing and about copyright infringement.

"Illegal file sharing is an important issue on college campuses, especially in light of recent events, and we hope to offer students an appealing, legal alternative with Peer Impact," Gregory Kerber, chairman and CEO of Wurld Media, said. "Peer Impact offers the opportunity to earn money for sharing legal content, while avoiding the harmful repercussions of criminal copyright infringement, and we anticipate that students will be impressed with the unique service. Cash back is a powerful incentive, and we look forward to making students aware of this option."

In addition to offering exclusive entry into the Peer Impact beta test, students will get the chance to enter to win a trip for two to any concert in the continental United States.

Peer Impact college tour stops include colleges and universities in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, New York City, Philadelphia, San Francisco, San Jose and Washington D.C.
