Taipei, Taiwan----May 4, 2004----CyberLink Corp., a leading developer of digital video software and training solutions, announced today that its two software solutions will help customers ride the most powerful mega-trends of today's IT industry:
? CyberLink DVD Solution, supports the growing DVD recordable market, and
? CyberLink PowerCinema, supports the increasing convergence between PCs and Consumer Electronic (CE) devices.

According to the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association, global demand for DVD recorders is forecast to rise 150% year-on-year to 9 million units in 2004, and further expand 75% to 15.8 million units in 2005. With the continuous drop in prices, DVD-recorders will soon become a mass-market product or standard on most PCs and notebooks. "Now users can do more with the increased storage capacity on their DVDs," said Alice H. Chang, CEO of CyberLink. "To meet this demad CyberLink offers a one-stop solution for hardware makers with the CyberLink DVD Solution. This solution is a complete suite of top-notch DVD applications that are seamlessly integrated by a function-driven interface: PowerStarter."

CyberLink DVD Solution includes award-winning software from CyberLink
:
- PowerDVD to playback DVD movies with enhanced visuals and audio
- PowerDirector to edit home movies with TV-like effects

- MediaShow to fix photos quickly and create slideshows
- Power2Go to burn data and music with easy drag-and-drop steps

The undeniable trend is that all of our home entertainment electronics will be digital: music and MP3 players, DVD players - and in the near future - TVs will be completely digital. This phenomenon gives today's multimedia PCs an important role in people's living rooms. By complementing multimedia PCs with the high quality, remote control-friendly software, PowerCinema, users can enjoy a cost-effective solution for their digital home.
