NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - November 10, 2009) - E1 Entertainment announces a new distribution deal with MusicSkins LLC, the leader in music-related, premium vinyl skin products.

MusicSkins LLC envisions all iPods, laptops, and phones as portable canvases for art and individuality. MusicSkins LLC's focus on music, art, culture and personalization has created a stylish way for musicians, DJs and artists to become closer to their fans while providing a low profile alternative to bulky cases. From Rock/Pop to Hip Hop to Country, Art and Fashion, and everything in between, there's a MusicSkin to suit every taste. Some of the artists featured on MusicSkins are The Beatles, Bob Marley, Coldplay, Madonna, Kiss, Lil Wayne, Black Eyed Peas, Taylor Swift and many, many more. Some of the cultural items include Domo, Explodingdog and Rogue Status, among others.

The skins are made of premium vinyl, which will defend devices from the harshest of scratches. The special adhesive makes the skin easy to apply, completely removable and leaves no residue so MusicSkins can be switched easily. MusicSkins add almost zero bulk so your device will still integrate perfectly with most cases, bags, docks, iTrip or armbands.

E1 Entertainment Distribution U.S. President Michael Rosenberg comments, "There is room for tremendous growth for an innovative company such as MusicSkins, with little or no limitations in terms of the licenses/product lines we'll be able to offer."

With E1's proven track record of execution and expertise, MusicSkins will have increased exposure in key retail markets, with significant long-term potential to further develop our brand in currently untapped markets."
