Samantha Lewis, Appointed To Australia’s AICO Board Of Directors

October 13, 2008 --- VAN NUYS, Calif. --- Digital Playground’s CEO, Samantha Lewis, was recently appointed to the Adult Industry Copyright Organization’s (AICO) Board of Directors in Sydney, Australia. The international organization of adult entertainment studios is dedicated to eradicating the breach of copyright in adult films distributed in Australia. Digital Playground has long been at the forefront of the fight against entertainment copyright infringement. AICO’s Executive Officer, Graeme Dunne says, “Samantha Lewis and Digital Playground are great supporters of the fight against adult film piracy. Samantha’s expertise and standing within the global adult industry is of great benefit to AICO.”

Samantha Lewis is extremely honored to receive the appointment to the Board of Directors. “Thank you to Malcolm Day, Fiona Patten, and Todd Blatt for acknowledging Digital Playground’s commitment towards eradicating piracy,” says Samantha. “AICO is taking a stand and showing everyone that we will not continue to allow copyright infringers to profit off of our industry’s hard work. We have a long fight in store for us, but I’m proud to help lead the way.”

“There’s a sweet irony in the producer of ‘Pirates’ and ‘Pirates II: Stagnetti's Revenge’ heading the fight against read adult film pirates,” comments Graeme Dunne.

Samantha joins AICO Directors Malcolm Day, Managing Director Adultshop.com Ltd and Todd Blatt, President of Antigua Pictures. Welcoming the high profile appointment, Malcolm Day says, “Samantha fills the position vacated by founding Director Fiona Patten, Executive Officer of the Eros Association. Fiona leaves to focus on political lobbying for the adult industry. I thank Fiona for her ideas, commitment, and enthusiasm and wish her every success.”
