Live 24/7 Entertainment and Social Network is Relaunched with New Content, Broader Appeal
With immediate effect, the live entertainment and social network Music Plus TV has become Vlaze Media Networks, Inc.
More than just an aesthetic branding issue, Vlaze.com’s new name accurately represents the site’s ongoing shift toward diverse content production. Launched as one of the first professionally produced online television networks in mid-2005, Vlaze.com initially focused on music and music lifestyle programming. However, as the network grew in popularity, it was recognized that viewers wanted more diverse content. With that in mind, Vlaze.com began producing more shows focusing on sports, movies, celebrity news, video games, and politics. The success of these new shows has lead directly to the new name.
"Like many of our users, I connected deeply with our old name, so I'm a bit sentimental about seeing it go," explains Vlaze.com Chairman & CEO Marc A. Cubas. "But I am confident that Vlaze.com will not only maintain the essence of our success, but usher in the next phase of compelling content, improved services, and an improved overall experience. From this new start, Vlaze.com will only grow quickly. Go tell a friend."
In the past year alone, Vlaze.com has grown from 10 thousand unique visitors per month to over 8 million unique visitors in September 2007 (the last completed month), and those numbers are still growing. In addition to the live broadcast network, Vlaze.com has also launched a dynamic social network focused on user-generated, rich-media content, quickly growing out a vibrant community and providing an intuitive, organic structure to host thousands of hours of Vlaze.com's exclusive content.
