Any File. Any Size. Anywhere.
ORINDA, Calif. - August 1, 2005 - Intraware, Inc. [NASDAQ: ITRA], the leading provider of digital delivery and management services, today announced that its Digital FastballTM service is now available in beta release. Digital Fastball is a fast, secure, professional Web-based digital content delivery service that enables small and mid-sized companies as well as individual users to deliver Any File. Any Size. Anywhere.TM
To date, Intraware has registered over 30 beta customers, including companies in such diverse business verticals as graphic design, architecture, film/TV/DVD, financial services, software, engineering, photography and education. Beta customers may use the Digital Fastball service for six months at no charge in return for providing feedback to Intraware on the service.

"The interest in Digital Fastball has been extraordinary across a broad spectrum of small and mid-sized businesses that need to send files to their clients, vendors, partners and peers," said Peter Jackson, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. "These companies recognize that a service enabling them to deliver any type of file instantly, securely and in a disciplined, project-oriented way can dramatically improve their cost structure and client satisfaction."
About Digital Fastball
With Digital Fastball, users can send digital files of virtually any type or size and restrict ongoing access of their valuable digital content to a specified list of recipients in an easy-to-use and feature-rich manner. Senders can monitor, and generate detailed reports on, deliveries and downloads of their files. Files are stored externally in a secure environment and recipients can access their entitled files through one of the industry's best digital content delivery networks.
Unlike many of the file-specific content services available on the Internet today, Digital Fastball allows the user to deliver virtually any type of content in its native format -- software, documents, video, audio, photos, graphics, schematics, databases, and more. Digital Fastball also enables users to combine multiple types of content for delivery when working with clients or colleagues on a project.
Digital Fastball differs fundamentally from many file-sharing services that use peer-to-peer networks. It utilizes centralized, managed cache servers. It allows companies to control entitlements and track downloads of their files. And, not only can Digital Fastball senders control and monitor who is downloading their digital content, but the service also has built-in safeguards against tampering with and unauthorized forwarding of files.
