Enhanced management of digital content for existing customers and new artists. Part of the Romanian artists have already started to develop their own online presence but not at a professional level. Here are some of the artists and record labels that will firstly benefit from our project: Euro Music, Alexandrina Hristov, Constantin Enceanu, Petrica Mitu Stoian, Ijac Music Production, Studio Speranta, Biserica Adoram, Teodora Popescu, Luiza Spiridon, Cvartet Anima, Vlad Florin, Infomedia PRO, Nicolas Simion, TiPtil, Flavius Teodosiu, Luna Amara, Ancuta Anghel, Ad Hoc, Teo Milea, TROOPER, Kult Studio, Mihai Iordache, Bodark, Eduard Kunz, Romeo Stan, Asociatia Culturala Teocta, Fundatia Jubilate, Mihai Nae, Magdalena Tara, Sebastian Grosu, Gilbert Iscu, Mihai Constantinescu, Alexandru Andries.

The protection of the artists' interests against piracy and the implementation of the legal framework are continuous efforts that ODS Romania started undergoing since the beginning. Today, the reliability gained through these efforts represents the main value in front of ODS’s customers. The CDSA (Content Delivery Storage Association), MPAA (Motion Picture of America Association) plus the ISO 27001 accreditations are all proof of these continuous efforts. Together with AROBS, this partnership proposes to continue the fight against piracy but this time in the online.
