LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Georg van Handel (CEO) and Chris Honetschlaeger (President) with BETA Records, LLC, announced today that they will partner with Digonex Technologies, Inc. to provide dynamically priced music downloads for their listeners. Digonex’s proprietary pricing service, the Digital Online Exchange (DOE), will determine the price of each individual track based on consumer demand and other economic factors within BETA’s upcoming social music community.

For BETA artists, it optimizes their revenue on their music uploads to the site. DOE allows the fans to have their musical tastes and preferences play a pivotal role in the price of each track in BETA’s growing MP3-based catalog of independent music from around the world.

BETA Records will utilize DOE to enhance a highly immersive and engaging music experience that creates close connections between unsigned artists and indie music fans on the new site slated for release later this year. Independent artists can easily upload their music and get exposed to a world-wide audience.

“We selected Digonex after careful evaluation and feel strongly that they have exactly the right technology to power the pricing model of our upcoming social music community,” said Chris Harper, CXO (Chief Experience Officer) with BETA Records, LLC.

“We are excited to power BETA Records’ dynamic pricing service and believe that the new site will appeal to a wide range of music fans,” said Rex Fisher, VP of Business Development with Digonex Technologies, Inc.
