San Jose, CA - August 8, 2008 - CDNetworks (KOSDAQ: 073710), a top-three global, full-service content delivery network (CDN), is utilizing its recently announced Hybrid Live Streaming service to deliver the first buffer-free, HD-grade, peer-assisted live Internet broadcast for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games website of SBS, a top Korean broadcaster. The new service delivers 2Mpbs live broadcasting at a much higher quality, scale, and better price economics compared to conventional CDN services. The service will be based on the comprehensive technology partnership between CDNetworks and Octoshape.

The CDNetworks Hybrid Live Streaming service combines Enterprise CDN services with a peer assisted service that is far more reliable than a generic P2P service for massive live HD content transmission. The new service delivers to an unlimited number of viewers a reliable, 2Mpbs super-high-quality live broadcast. CDNetworks Hybrid Live Streaming provides maximum reliability independent of the volume of network traffic and number of concurrent viewers. The result is live Internet broadcasting on a PC with a more vivid display than television.

SBS' viewers will watch the thrill of the Beijing Olympic Games live on their PCs. Starting with the soccer qualifier between Korea and Cameroon on August 7, SBS will broadcast its Olympic coverage live for 17 days, using the Hybrid Live Streaming service of CDNetworks.
