A collection of MP3 music will be bundled with the Destiny Media Player(TM) and will be distributed globally by GT Interactive (Nasdaq:GTIS - news). Walmart has placed an initial order of 20,000 units, which will be available to consumers by the end of October 1999.

This premier release will also feature sixty artists who have partnered with the company. CD's in this series will each contain up to 150 songs in the MP3 format and will sell for $9.95. ''This is the first MP3 compilation to be sold in the North American retail channels,' states Ed Kolic, Destiny's VP of Marketing. ''We expect this title to sell extremely well because of the increasing consumer awareness for the MP3 music format and because we are first to market. We are very pleased to see that a retailer, the caliber of Walmart, sees the potential of this new hybrid category which appeals to both the music and computer software channels.'
