Soundnet was previously the name used solely for the division of DT Productions that dealt with the digital jukebox industry. However, the name will now cover all the company's business supplying audio and audio/visual content to pubs, bars, shops and clubs. Soundnet sums up the business activity of the company and with a number of new audio, video and karaoke products set for release in 2008 it makes sense to standardise the business into only one brand for recognition purposes. Soundnet specialises in bespoke music and video compilations that capture a brand's unique personality. From mainstream pop to hardcore rock, every programme is carefully compiled from the exclusive library of 50,000 audio titles, 30,000 video titles and 5,000 karaoke tracks. The programming department sources all the content directly from the record labels at the same time as it is dispatched to radio and TV.
