with a claimed readership of ore than 75 million American women. Mag Rack

of health and wellness; house and home; food; fitness; kids and family and relationships.

Meredith also owns 12 TV stations and various consumer Web
sites. With Comcast, it launched VOD service Parents TV On Demand in 2007. Mag Rack owner Interactivation also owns the Concert TV VOD music service and has been experimenting with text-messaging based interactive advertising.

"This partnership represents a unique content and
revenue-sharing arrangement in the video on demand space," Meredith CEO Steve
Lacy said in a release. "We possess tremendous video content creation
capabilities across our multiple national and local brands. Interactivation's
Mag Rack network has an impressive national footprint across the major cable

"Meredith's well-known consumer brands and recognized
content expertise will be very attractive to Mag Rack's demographic," Interactivation
CEO Joe Covey said in the release. "This partnership bridges print, Web video,
and VOD viewed on television in a way that will allow consumers to move
seamlessly between media throughout their day."
