New York, March 10, 2006 – Back in 2002, AREA 17 launched a new and industry–leading membership–based community website for Giant Step. Jam–packed with features such as integrated forums, contests, and a rock–solid jukebox with high quality weekly unreleased tunes, giantstep.net has become the destination for new music discovery.
Through close partnership between AREA 17 and Giant Step, we have worked to refine the website and its functionality – giving users what they desire and helping Giant Step do business in a more streamlined manner. Today, we launch a new look to the website with added features such as News, What's Hot, Jukebox exclusives (exclusive radio shows) and a new features section (reviews, articles, listings). Visit the website, become a member, post to the forums, plug into the jukebox and enjoy!

« I am in utter awe and disbelief upon taking the first glance at our new website created by AREA 17. The incredible design and extremely user–friendly nature of thE site has finally allowed us to connect with our community the way we've always wanted to, in the one place that we've never quite done it right – the Internet.
The functionality that they've created for us including the jukebox, related forums and content, search capability and a viable online database for our membership program, has helped put Giant Step at the helm of the music and lifestyle realm online.»
