Movielink runs a web site that lets people buy movies online but Video Tech claims that this breaches its technology, and the system is being used without its permission. Several huge studios are named in the suit including Warner Brothers, Paramount, Metro Goldwyn Mayer, Universal Studios and Sony Pictures. They are members of a company that operates Movielink and the web site. The suit asks the court to place an injunction on Movielink, pay compensation and treble damages, legal costs and wants the trial to go before a jury.

USVO Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of USA Video Interactive Corp. (``USVO'') and supplier of the powerful MediaSentinel(tm)digital watermarking technology, has entered into a partnership with Lightning Media, a leading Hollywood provider of new media, post-production and DVD replication services.

By using USVO's MediaSentinel workstation, Lightning Media takes a major step in the ongoing fight against piracy by offering a new set of digital watermarking services for studios, television programmers and other clients. ``Video piracy is a serious problem for the movie industry with billions of dollars in losses every year,'' said Edwin Molina, President and CEO of USVO. ``The partnership of USVO's MediaSentinel technology with Lightning Media's digital video services provides the entertainment industry a solution to help fight the growing piracy epidemic.'' These services will be available from Lightning Media starting in mid-October, 2004.

During the initial phase of the relationship, the companies will promote the MediaSentinel watermarking service to Lightning Media studio clients directly and through advertising. In support of these efforts, the companies will collaborate in the development of educational materials that make clear the benefits of watermarking to Lightning Media clients. Through these efforts, the companies also hope to attract new business.

``Lightning Media is excited about our partnership with USVO,'' states Stephen Buchsbaum, CEO of Lightning Media. ``MediaSentinel is the perfect product to aid us in our continuing quest to eliminate piracy. The timing is also ideal as it coincides with our expansion to a new DVD replication facility in Valencia, California. We are delighted to be able to offer our clientele this new way to protect and track their property.''
