Web Video Wars (Part 1)
If you get a chance to look at the Wall Street Journal today they are highlighting “Web Video Wars” on the front of the marketplace section with the title “Big TV’s Broadband Blitz”. A very distressing point to quote is “This series explores the implications of the Web video boom for all the major players - TV networks, film studios, Internet portals and consumer electronics.” Please note Telecom or Internet Access Providers are shut out from this viewpoint.
Is this a valid view? Is this proof that the Internet has separated facilities from the applications?
At Boston on Sept. 11-14, 2006 we will have both points of view well represented with the Video On the Net conference, focused on the same audience as the Wall Street Journal, and Fall 2006 VON focused the IPTV/Cable industry.
Are these two camps looking for the same pot of gold? What is the value proposition that makes the win / win scenario?
We know that when technology changes as fast as it does with the Internet it’s easy to focus on a tree and miss the forest, but our goal is to give the full view to you.
