VENACA AND EMC SUPPLY INTEGRATED MEDIA SOLUTION FOR TURNER ENTERTAINMENT GROUP

Venaca S3, EMC Avalon Software and EMC CLARiiON Storage Systems Support Turner's Media Asset Management Integration Room

Las Vegas (NAB) - April 19, 2004- Venaca, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation, and EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), the world leader in information storage and management, today announced a premier technology integration for Turner Entertainment Group's Media asset management Integration Room (MIR). This integrated media asset management storage solution delivers unprecedented speed, performance and reliability for managing Turner's rapidly growing rich media content.

MIR is a state-of-the-art facility designed to model, test and showcase Turner's most advanced media solutions and prepare for deployment in live production and broadcast environments. This innovative lab will be instrumental for Turner to continue implementing cutting-edge technology seamlessly and cost effectively.

Venaca's S3 software manages content with a full suite of features including the ability to ingest, store, search, preview, retrieve, edit, transcode and distribute media assets. Venaca optimized its native hierarchical storage management (HSM) capability with integration to EMC Avalon's Intelligent Data Management software to maximize performance in this extremely demanding environment. The S3 system, capable of handling broadcast quality media formats such as HD and MPEG2, is stored on EMC CLARiiON® networked storage systems and managed by EMC Navisphere™ and EMC PowerPath™ software.

"This solution is architected to meet the highest demands of enterprise broadcast applications," said Eric Bolten, Vice President of Sales for Venaca. "The MIR platform, backed by EMC and Venaca, sets a new benchmark for performance, reliability and scalability for the media asset industry in broadcast production. We see this as the center of excellence for the entire industry and a superior example of EMC and Venaca's synergy in this type of application."

"The explosion of digital content continues with more information being created in digital format than ever before and EMC remains the leading storage systems and software technology for rich media," said BJ Jenkins, EMC's Vice President, telecommunications, media and entertainment. "EMC has been a long time Turner partner supporting numerous mission-critical production and broadcast applications. The integrated solution that EMC and Venaca are deploying for MIR will ready Turner for the next big thing by providing the ability to offer more services with reduced risk while improving customer satisfaction."

EMC also provides networked storage for Turner Broadcasting System's (TBS, Inc.) Broadcast Inventory Management (BIM) system in its drive to digitize TV programming. EMC's Avalon software and CLARiiON networked storage manage the distribution of programming and advertising for Turner's 22 entertainment cable TV networks, including TNT, TBS Superstation, The Cartoon Network and Turner Classic Movies.
