Hi Brian,
The good news is that any individual or
organization can register
with them and distribute their press releases globally: the bad
news is that it costs $125 a year to do so.
I did actually look into the cost of this sort of thing, and the
quotes I got were around $400 per release to send just to one group
of journalists. I think the membership fee is just that, then you pay
by the word for each release - minimum 400 words. Extra categories of
journalists and photos etc. cost extra.
For the time being I was going to use
linuxpr.com and
lwn.net, which
are free as in beer, eg:
as an aside,
lwn.net closely monitors the linux-audio-announce list.
anything you post there will almost certainly be included in their
daily updates and weekly issues, and on their rss feed as well.
