September 29, 2004 –( TheHostingNews.com) Digital River, Inc. (NASDAQ: DRIV), a global leader in e-commerce outsourcing , today announced that it launched a new online store as the first pre-approved seller of downloadable software on eBay. Located at http://stores.ebay.com/downloadstore, Digital River’s download software store is part of eBay’s pilot program to test the opportunity of offering downloadable software on eBay’s site. The launch marked the introduction of the purchase category to eBay’s community of consumers.

To cater to the eBay community, Digital River designed and launched the software store, which features a catalog of downloadable software titles, including utilities, business applications, productivity tools, and digital imaging and security software. Digital River not only hosts the site, but also handles payment processing, fraud prevention, customer service, reporting and digital downloads. Because Digital River’s e-commerce system is integrated into eBay’s marketplace, Digital River can automate the online marketing and sales process for its publishing clients and minimize operational complexities.

“We believe the launch of our downloadable software store on eBay serves as an important extension of our online sales network,” said Joel Ronning, Digital River’s CEO. “Working with tens of thousands of software publishing clients over the past 10 years, we’ve been able to build what we believe is one of the world’s largest digital libraries. By making select titles available on eBay, we can offer publishing clients tremendous product exposure on one of the most highly trafficked marketplaces in the world.”
