A very very very good article indeed. For all to read and you are all very welcome.

On its website, Independent Media Distribution (IMD) describes itself as an "electronic postman". And there's no contest between delivering radio and television adverts electronically or by video via a black cab. But old-fashioned ways tend to linger and replacing them will fuel IMD's growth for several years to come.

Advertising
In the UK, IMD and a private rival have reduced the amount of ads on video tapes to about a fifth of the market. But the video markets in Germany and France are wide open for electronic conversion as videos still account for around 90 per cent of ad deliveries there. Indeed, 2009 revenue growth would have been modest but for a jump in international revenues (including Ireland) from just £300,000 to £1.4m as operations in Germany, Austria and Switzerland (GAS) became profitable. The company has also developed several new services including unique identification numbers for commercials in France. So for growth IMD may not have to look further afield than France and GAS for several years.

Broker Charles Stanley forecasts 2010 normalised profits (excluding amortisation) to rise from £1.7m to £2.2m on sales of £10m. On the same basis, earnings advance from 3.79p to 4.66p. Another £1m on sales in 2011 could push up profits to £2.6m and earnings to 5.54p.

On the basis of these forecasts, IMD;s shares remain cheap and are a buy.

Actually the Britel fund nominees holding hasn't changed at all (see the holding announcement of Apr 2005). What's happened is that the entire Possfund nominees holding was transferred to Barclays Global Investors a couple of weeks ago. Whether that's from change of investment manager or because Possfund can't hold AIM shares or another reason, I don't know.

IMD SIGNS UP AS KEY SUPPLIER TO DIGITAL MEDIA ASSET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM LEPORELLO AND OPENS GERMAN OFFICE IN FRANKFURT

5 September 2007 - Independent Media Distribution plc (IMD) after launching its digital distribution service for TV commercials in Germany last month, today announces the signing of its second major client; Leporello. Founded in 1996, IMD is the UK's leading and longest established distributor of advertising commercials, music videos and data to TV & Radio broadcasters.

Leporello, the revolutionary online tool for motion picture images and digital data, will work with IMD as the supplier for the digital distribution of TV commercials in Germany. Leporello, which is currently employed by several major advertising agencies and post production companies, will integrate with IMD to offer its clients a fully comprehensive, high quality, faster and more accurate advertising delivery service.

Leporello's Managing Director Nabil Moghib commented: "I have worked closely with IMD for several months and am convinced that they will be able to offer the highest quality service possible for Leporello's clients. Tapeless distribution of commercials is a logical extension of the tapeless services already offered by the Leporello platform and I know our clients are keen to use the service provided by IMD."

IMD is already distributing commercials digitally to two key German broadcasters and currently has installations underway at two more major broadcasters. As more broadcasters connect to IMD's True Digital Delivery TM system, IMD expects to have full coverage of the German TV market by the end of 2007.

IMD is also celebrating the opening of its German headquarters in Frankfurt. This is IMD's first office in mainland Europe and joins IMD's other offices in London and Dublin. IMD will provide a full ingest and Quality Control service for TV commercials from this office as well as offering customer service for its clients and broadcaster partners.

Simon Cox, CEO of IMD commented, "the opening of our new office in Frankfurt and the signing of Leporello underlines IMD's commitment to working in Germany."

IMD LAUNCHES TAPELESS DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION SERVICE FOR TV COMMERCIALS IN GERMANY WITH SIGNING OF FIRST MAJOR CLIENT PICTORION das werk

Independent Media Distribution plc (IMD) launches its digital distribution service for TV commercials in Germany as it signs first major client PICTORION das werk. Founded in 1996, IMD is the UK's leading and longest established distributor of advertising commercials, music videos and data to TV & Radio broadcasters.

PICTORION das werk, one of Germany's top post production groups, will work with IMD as its preferred supplier of digital distribution services for TV commercials, in Germany, with immediate effect. The Group, which has offices in Hamburg, Berlin, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Cologne and Munich, will integrate with IMD to offer its clients a fully comprehensive, high quality, faster and more accurate advertising delivery service.

Continuing its strong investment strategy and its buoyant trading in the UK, IMD is now able to develop its business beyond the UK into mainland Europe, where digital distribution into TV broadcasters is almost non-existent. In Germany, almost 95% of all TV commercials are delivered on video tape by overnight couriers.

IMD has pioneered True Digital Delivery TM used in the UK by several broadcasters including ITV. True Digital DeliveryTM is a digital file based delivery system, which helps broadcasters as well as post production houses by reducing the cost and time involved in handling video tape. This benefit is maximised for broadcasters as the file that is delivered is already in the right format for transmission and requires no further work.

The deal will allow IMD to distribute commercials to two key German broadcasters. As broadcasters connect to IMD's True Digital Delivery TM system, IMD expects to have full coverage of the German TV market by the end of 2007.

Simon Cox, CEO of IMD commented, "We are absolutely delighted to have reached a landmark agreement with das werk, one of the pre-eminent post production groups in Germany and look forward to working with them to bring the benefits of digital delivery of commercials to their clients and German broadcasters".

Michael Endres, MD of PICTORION das werk added, "We chose IMD because of its track record and high quality reputation, which fits both our requirements and the needs of the German market today. The future is digital delivery of TV content, and IMD is the right partner to help us deliver this to our clients."

Independent Media Distribution PLC
16 October 2006

For immediate release: 16 October 2006

Independent Media Distribution plc
Announcement of proposed move to AIM

The Board of Independent Media Distribution plc ('IMD' or 'the Company')
announces that, following a review of strategic options, it believes that the
Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange plc ('AIM') is a more
appropriate market for the Company's shares than the Official List of the UK
Listing Authority (the 'Official List') for the following reasons:

* The Company's market capitalisation remains relatively small compared to
other companies whose shares are listed on the Official List and the
directors believe that the Company could attract more interest from
investors on AIM since this market is designed for smaller companies, has
specialist institutional investors, and allows private investors to take
advantage of attractive tax benefits;

* The Company's strategy on an ongoing basis may involve making acquisitions,
to complement its ongoing organic growth. The regulations for AIM companies
when making such acquisitions are less stringent and complying therewith
implies lower costs and less time when making acquisitions. The Directors
believe that this will increase IMD's ability to complete acquisitions in
competitive situations.

IMD confirms that there will be no changes to its Board or its standards of
reporting and corporate governance as a result of the change of market.

The Company announces that a circular will be posted to shareholders today
recommending the de-listing of the Company's ordinary shares from the Official
List and the cancellation of trading on the London Stock Exchange's market for
listed securities (together the 'De-Listing'). Subject to approval of the
De-Listing by shareholders at an EGM to be held on Wednesday 8 November 2006, it
is proposed that an application will be made for the ordinary shares to be
admitted to trading on AIM. It is expected that the last day of dealings on the
main market will be Wednesday 6 December 2006 and that trading on AIM will
commence at 8.00a.m. on Thursday 7 December 2006.

Bridgewell Limited will act as the Company's nominated adviser and broker on
AIM.

David Haynes, Executive Chairman, said: 'The board is of the opinion that the
proposed transfer to AIM is in the best interests of the Company and the
shareholders as a whole. We feel that AIM is a more suitable market for the
Company's shares and that the change will significantly enhance IMD's ability to
compete when making acquisitions, which we hope will become a source of growth
for the Company.'


Documents on Display

Copies of the circular have been sent to the UK Listing Authority and will
shortly be available to the public for inspection at the UK Listing Authority's
Document Viewing Facility, situated at:

Financial Services Authority, 25 The North Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London E14
5HS.

helping develop and drive its pioneering activities especially in television and video."

It seems to me Larousse/games that when the system was being built up they were happy to let broadcasters have it cheaper so they got used to the simplicity of the system. Itv was obviously the key to it all. The production houses are also a very important part of the system, that way a digital file can go straight to I M D then to the stations required. With 20 of the 40 production house signed up hopefully the others will follow shortly. This is how i see it, if I am wrong please correct me.

Games - If I were you and you fancy a punt with these I would get in quick. I don't think the price will stay at this level for long, can see them getting to 60/70p within 3 to 6 months. That of cause my opinion Games. I bet there is a lot of investors that have IMD on there watch list.

Larousse we have waited, what seems a long time for completion of the network but I feel we are there now and should see our investment grow at a steady pace. Do you remember the share price at 85p ha I do, those were the days

By the way, I would be very happy with those figures above.
