London, UK, 7th January, 2004 – Miglia Technology, a leading European manufacturer of video, audio and storage products for Mac and Windows, today announced that it has teamed up with Aquafadas Software, creators of the renowned iDive application, to provide a 10% discount on the Miglia Director’s Cut range and a 20% discount on iDive.

In order to qualify for a discount on a Director’s Cut, users simply need to provide their iDive serial number when ordering on Miglia’s online store. To qualify for a discount on an iDive license, customers simply need to provide a proof of purchase for a Director’s Cut when ordering iDive.

Matthieu Kopp, CEO Aquafadas Software, commented: “iDive is a natural fit for the award winning Director’s Cut range, as it provides an ideal environment for the capture and organisation of footage which has been converted from an analogue video source. iDive enables you to control the transfer of your analogue data and annotate it using the powerful and intuitive logging capability of iDive. iDive makes archived video files more accessible and easy to retrieve, therefore enabling a user to be much more productive with their video editing.”
