      JumpTV Reports Q2 2008 Results

    TORONTO--(Marketwire - August 11, 2008) - JumpTV (TSX: JTV) (AIM: JTV), a leading broadcaster of live and on-demand sports and
international television over the Internet, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008. 

    Revenue was $3.6 million (all amounts in U.S. dollars) for the second quarter of 2008 compared to $3.6 million for the first quarter of
2008 and $1.2 million in the same period in 2007 -- marking a year-over-year increase of 206%. This increase can be attributed to the
acquisition of CyclingTV and XOS Broadband Networks (now JumpTV Sports) and the revenue generated by the South American World Cup Qualifiers
in the second quarter of 2008. 

    The net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $11.5 million or $0.23 per share, basic and diluted as compared to $58.7
million or $1.19 per share, basic and diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and $6.5 million or $0.13 per share, basic and
diluted in the same period a year ago. The decrease in net loss from the first quarter 2008 was primarily due to the impairment of goodwill
and intangibles recorded in the first quarter. Non-cash expenses were $2.0 million in the second quarter, consisting of amortization and
stock-based compensation, compared to $50.2 million in the first quarter of 2008, consisting of impairment of goodwill and intangibles as
well as amortization and stock-based compensation. As of June 30, 2008 the Company had $29.8 million in cash and cash equivalents. 

    "In our sports business, we broadened our client base by adding new teams and leagues as partners and, at the same time, we increased
the depth of many of our existing relationships by adding incremental functionality and other technology solutions to their online
offerings," commented G. Scott Paterson, Executive Chairman of JumpTV. 

    "In our international business, we took steps with respect to people and other resources to position our strongest areas of content
aggregation -- Arabic, South Asian, Hispanic and Caribbean -- to be re-energized in the context of our new business plan which will unfold
as a result of our planned merger with NeuLion. In particular, at this time, we have focused on our Arabic content which will soon be
launched and available under its own newly designed and built proprietary portal which will compliment this content's availability on
JumpTV.com," added Paterson. 

    The Company reports that its previously announced planned merger with NeuLion Inc., a Plainview, New York-based end-to-end IPTV service
provider of live and on-demand sports, international and religious programming over the Internet and through set top boxes to the
television, is on track to close on October 1st subject to shareholder and regulatory approvals. 

    "We are very excited about our pending merger and believe that the JumpTV/NeuLion combination will be able to offer our sports and
international content partners best-in-class technology and services," Paterson commented. 

    The Company reported the following traffic related average monthly metrics in connection with overall user activity on JumpTV.com, our
affiliate web sites and on JumpTV Sports-managed sites but not including third-party distributors of JumpTV content such as AOL.com and
Terra.com:

    The approximate number of subscribers as of June 30, 2008 was 68,500. Year-over-year subscribers increased 128% from 30,000 in Q2 2007,
primarily as a result of the acquisitions of XOS Broadband Networks (now JumpTV Sports) and Cycling TV. The Company reports that it is
typical for its subscriber trends to experience significant seasonality with Q2 being the weakest and Q4 being the strongest quarters as a
result of the college/university school years and, correspondingly, football and basketball seasons.

    Forward-Looking Statement 

    Certain statements herein relating to JumpTV's plans to merge with Nuelion, Inc. are forward-looking statements and represent JumpTV's
current intentions in respect of future activities. These statements, in addressing future events and conditions, involve inherent risks and
uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can by identified by the use of the words "will," "expect," "seek," "anticipate," "believe,"
"plan," "estimate," "expect," and "intend" and statements that an event or result "may," "will," "can," "should," "could," or "might" occur
or be achieved and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements involve significant risk, uncertainties and assumptions. Many
factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results discussed or implied in the
forward-looking statements. These factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking
statements. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this release are based upon what Management believes to be reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot assure readers that actual results
will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this release and the
Company assumes no obligation to update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances, except as required by law. Many factors could
cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or
achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including: general economic and market segment conditions,
competitor activity, product capability and acceptance, international risk and currency exchange rates and technology changes. More specific
risks include that the merged entity will not be able to realize some or all of the expected synergies due to incompatibilities in the
merging businesses, the inability of management to bring about such synergies or a changing business environment rendering such synergies inadvisable or uneconomical. After integrating the
businesses the suite of service offerings may not perform as expected if shifting demand moves in a direction away from the expected
business model of the merged entity, if competitors are able to take market share away from the merged entity or if changing technology
adversely impacts the merged businesses. In addition, while the Company expects its content partners and those of NeuLion to continue and
expand their relationship with the merged entity, there can be no assurance that such relationships will continue as expected, or at all.
More detailed assessment of the risks that could cause actual results to materially differ than current expectations is contained in the
"Risk Assessment" section of the Company's 2007 annual MD&A filed on www.sedar.com.
