In January 1998 the company officially changed its name to its World Wide Web address, AnotherUniverse.com, to reflect the explosive growth of the company’s Internet commerce division, but still maintains successful operation of both its mail order catalog and mall-based specialty stores.

The Entertainment Drive website, located at http://www.eDrive.com, was named one of the "Top 100 Sites" in PC Magazine’s 1997 "Best of the Web" issue and recently won the coveted "Webby" award. eDrive.com is also a Premier Active Channel on Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) Internet Explorer 4.0. Entertainment Drive is also available entirely in Japanese on Japan’s leading commercial online service, NIFTY SERVE. The New York-based company premiered on CompuServe (NYSE: AOL) in 1994, and quickly became one of the most successful content providers on the service, providing first-ever digitized movie previews and live backstage coverage of the Oscar ®, Emmy® and Tony awards ceremonies.
