Sureflix and Gay.com Announce Strategic Alliance
Will Launch New Privately-Labeled Gay Cinema
September 27, 2005, Toronto – Working to provide adult consumers with the world’s best gay adult digital content whenever and wherever they desire, Sureflix today announced a strategic alliance with Gay.com to deliver a privately-labeled video-on-demand (VOD) website.
When it launches in the fourth quarter of 2005, the new cinema, MenAfterDark.tv, will be a paid service that will be available exclusively to adult users of Gay.com. Based on the Sureflix pay-per-play model, the new cinema site will feature scene and movie rentals from the world’s top gay production studios, including Falcon, Blue Blake, Kristen Bjorn, MSR, Studio 2000 and hundreds more.
“Gay.com’s goal is to bring the most compelling entertainment content and experiences to our customers,” said Spencer Moore, Director, Corporate Communications at PlanetOut Inc, parent of Gay.com. “In this space, we explored a range of alternatives and concluded that Sureflix delivered the best service by far. By working with Sureflix, we have the opportunity to ensure that our paying adult members can access the world’s best adult digital entertainment offering.”
“Sureflix’s goal is to develop strategic partnerships with other leading brands that share our vision of delivering the highest quality customer experience possible,” says Eric Johnson, President, Sureflix Digital Distribution. "I am delighted that Gay.com has selected our company to develop this project. It is a vote of both confidence and trust.”
As part of the alliance, the two companies will undertake a joint promotional campaign to promote the new VOD site.
