HFA’s governing Board of Directors unanimously voted to extend Churgin’s contract, confirming the work of he and his team in transforming HFA into a key player in the digital music marketplace. During this hfatenure, HFA transformed its technology systems and business processes, adding new online applications for publishers and licensees through a new registered user area of www.harryfox.com, including the licensing platform eMechanical®, the catalog maintenance tool eSong®, and a completely revamped version of Songfile®, the popular online licensing store aimed at the smaller-quantity licensee.
