Company Re-Designs Ecommerce Website to Allow for Quicker, More

Extensive and Efficient Music Searches

LLR Gospel Music, the premier provider of digital Gospel music and a philanthropic organization, today announced that it has joined the affiliate programs of CDNow, one of the nation's leading online music destinations, and Sheet Music Plus, the world's largest online retailer of sheet music.

The affiliate programs will provide LLR Gospel Music customers and guests with multiple music search options via the LLR Gospel Music "hard-to-find" search engine, CDNow search engine and Sheet Music Plus search engine, all located at www.llrGospelmusic.com. To accommodate these changes, LLR Gospel Music has re-designed its ecommerce website to allow for quicker, more extensive and efficient music searches.

Donna Auguste, President, CEO and Founder of LLR Gospel Music, said: "By joining the CDNow and Sheet Music Plus affiliate programs, LLR Gospel Music customers and guests will have an even greater selection of music and features. For example, CDNow's extensive music library, competitive pricing structure and highly efficient fulfillment system will allow LLR Gospel Music guests to find even more of today's hottest Gospel and Christian music CDs. At the same time, our guests will still be able to utilize the LLR Gospel Music 'hard-to-find' search engine to browse and purchase from a diverse selection of Contemporary, Jazz, Southern and Traditional Gospel and Christian CDs not found on other popular ecommerce music websites."

Ms. Auguste continued: "I am also excited to announce that our newly established affiliate program with Sheet Music Plus will allow LLR Gospel Music guests to find and purchase sheet music for specific music titles. With over 354,000 titles, Sheet Music Plus has the largest online sheet music catalog available anywhere, ensuring that our customers will find the sheet music they are seeking. This feature clearly differentiates LLR Gospel Music in the Gospel and Christian music industry by providing our guests with a high-demand service not readily offered at other ecommerce music websites."

All net proceeds generated from the sale of CDs at www.llrGospelmusic.com -- whether they are generated from LLR Gospel Music directly or from the affiliate programs with CDNow and Sheet Music Plus -- will go toward LLR Gospel Music's parent company, The Leave a Little Room Foundation, and their philanthropic missions in the United States, Mexico and Africa.

Jennifer Richmond, Vice President of Marketing at Sheet Music Plus, said: "We are extremely pleased to have LLR Gospel Music as a new affiliate of Sheet Music Plus. The company's 'hard-to-find' Gospel and Christian music selection, commitment to customer service and philanthropic drive complements Sheet Music Plus' diversity and philosophy. We welcome them to Sheet Music Plus' family of affiliate companies."

To celebrate the newly formed affiliate programs and re-designed website, LLR Gospel Music is offering a free LLR key-chain to the first 500 individuals who fill out our Guest Book located on the LLR Gospel Music homepage.(a)
