Key events of the 1Q 2011 1.1. International deployments - Qriocity: Sony launches its proprietary VoD and online music services in Europe The Facts In late 2010, Sony launched its VoD platform on the five largest European markets (UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain). Named "Video On Demand by Qriocity", it is available on the "Bravia Internet Video" connected TV platform and will be gradually enriched with new content (recently with music and forthcoming with games and e-books). Already available in the US since April 2010, the Qriocity video on demand service offers hundreds of titles – some of which in HD - from the catalogues of the American majors (20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, Lionsgate, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, NBC Universal International Television Distribution, Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, The Walt Disney Company and Warner Bros. Digital Distribution), as well as blockbusters from important local production companies. Movies can be rented by the unit for 48 hours from the HDTVs, Blu-ray players and home theatre systems equipped with the Bravia solution. Table 1: Rates of movies rented by the unit of the Qriocity VoD service in the study region UK (GBP) Eurozone (EUR) HD new releases 4.49 4.99 SD new releases 3.49 3.99 HD library titles 3.49 3.99 SD library titles 2.49 2.99 Source: ScreenDigest Launched in the UK and Ireland in December 2010, followed by France, Germany, Italy and Spain last January, "Music Unlimited" by Qriocity is a subscription music service based on cloud computing and accessible on various Sony connected terminals: Bravia TVs, Blu-ray players and home theatre systems, or PlayStation 3 games consoles or and VAIO computers. This service is based on a catalogue of six million titles from the majors (Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group and EMI Music) and independent labels. Similar to a Web radio, the Basic plan (EUR 3.99 per month) provides access to dozens of thematic channels, without having to download or manage music files. The Premium plan (EUR 9.99 per month) lets users listen to any song in full on demand, create playlists and enjoy 100 premium radio stations. To access Qriocity’s music and online video offers, users must create an account on the service’s website unless they are already members of the PlayStation Network. www.idate-research.com © IDATE 2011 4 Connected TV Markets: Insight n°1 IDATE Point of View In Europe, Sony has taken up the challenge of deploying its own branded VoD service on its connected TV solution rather than forging partnerships with third-party VoD services (with the exception of the UK, where Lovefilm is also distributed on Bravia Internet Video). Sony already has some experience with the acquisition and management of VoD rights, as it has been distributing a range of films and series on the PlayStation 3 since Fall 2008. In the five major European countries, the Bravia connected TV platform offers three complementary video services: • a fee-based VoD service of in-house produced content (Qriocity); • a free catch-up TV service provided by partner local TV channels (M6 Replay in France, Antena 3 and TV3 in Spain, BBC iPlayer in the UK and ProSieben, Sat.1 and Kabeleins in Germany); • free content from the catalogues of the leading players of the online video community (YouTube and Dailymotion). This go-it-alone strategy in the field of VoD contrasts with the approaches adopted by its competitors – based on partnerships – but also with the one pursued by Sony itself in the US: there, Bravia Internet Video includes indeed several other VoD services in parallel to Qriocity, including Amazon Instant Video, Netflix and Hulu Plus. 1.2. Announcements & Releases - Postponed to 2012, the YouView Connected TV Platform Launches its API The Facts In late February, YouView officially postponed its commercial launch – originally planned for this summer – to early 2012. Built on a hybrid broadcast-broadband architecture, the British connected TV platform is experiencing some technical difficulties which forced it to reconsider its deployment schedule. A pre-test phase should be launched at the end of this year. Through the voice of its CEO Richard Halton, YouView has also announced the release of its API (Application Programming Interface) allowing all OEMs to build products incorporating this technology. This announcement will take place after the publication, on April 14, of the solution’s key technical features. IDATE Point of View By opening its API to third-party developers, YouView confirms its status as an open technical platform and comprehensive solution composed of a connected device, content and a programming interface. The consortium behind the project hence agrees to have its technology used under other brand names, particularly outside of the United Kingdom. www.idate-research.com © IDATE 2011 5 Connected TV Markets: Insight n°1 1.3. Offer Innovations - Amazon Offers a Video Streaming Service to its Prime Subscribers The Facts Since February 2011, the subscribers of Amazon’s Prime service in the United States can now enjoy unlimited access at no extra cost to Prime Instant Videos, an online streaming video offer without advertising with more than 5,000 movies and TV shows extracted from Amazon’s Instant Video catalogue. Offered at a subscription rate of USD 79 per year (about EUR 60), Amazon Prime is, initially, the premium delivery service of the e-commerce giant. The video offer thus presents itself as a free bonus to existing logistics services (free delivery within 48 hours, at will without minimum order amount, and fast delivery in 24 hours at the preferential rate of USD 3.99 (EUR 3) per article). Prime Instant Videos can be accessed on PC and on some 200

  • Managing Real Options in Television Broadcasting
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive User Generated Content: Web 2.0 Taking the Video Sector by Storm Mabillot, David communications strategies March 2007 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/4579/ MPRA Paper No. 4579, posted 23 Aug 2007 UTC User Generated Content: Web 2.0 Taking the Video Sector by Storm David MABILLOT University Paris XIII - CEPN – UMR CNRS 7115 and Maison des Sciences de l'Homme Paris Nord Abstract: This article examines the communities involved in the distribution and sharing of videos on the internet. Firstly, we study the practices connected with user generated content and describe the appearance of new players (YouTube, Dailymotion, Google Video, Zudeo, etc.) in the audiovisual landscape. We then discuss regulation of the new community model of digital content distribution before moving on to underline the need for the film and audiovisual industries to socially construct new cultural and commercial experiences with film fans. Key words: user generated content, information good, communities, markets, audiovisual, film, common good, regulation and intellectual property. ith the advent of Web 2.0, individuals and their social relations Whave moved to the centre of the internet stage (MOUNIER, 2005; GUILLAUD, 2005). A new combination of technologies (Ajax), which encourages total interaction between users and on-line services, is transforming the web from a medium supplied by millions of isolated sites into a platform for the free exchange of information and content produced, edited and distributed by internet surfers, belonging to organised communities and brought together by common interests. This exchange has been made possible by the digitisation and low-cost reproduction of content (MABILLOT, 2006a, 2006b).

    Title: Internet Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Policy Policy Number 2010-002 TopicalArea: Security Document Type Program Policy Pages: 3 Effective Date 8t20t2010 POC for Changes Director, Office of Computing and Information Services (OCIS) Synopsis Establishes a Dalton State College-wide policy regarding copyright infringement. Overview The popularity of Internet peer-to-peer file sharing is often the source of network resource allocation problems and copyright infringement. Purpose This policy will define Internet peer-to-peer file sharing and state the policy of Dalton State College (DSC) on this issue. Scope The scope of this policy includes all DSC computing resources. Policy Internet peer-to-peer file sharing applications are frequently used to distribute copyrighted materials such as music, motion pictures, and computer software. Such exchanges are illegal and are not permifted on Dalton State Gollege computers or network. See the standards outlined in the Appropriate Use Policy. DSG Procedures and Sanctions Failure to comply with the appropriate use of these resources threatens the atmosphere for the sharing of information, the free exchange of ideas, and the secure environment for creating and maintaining information property, and subjects one to discipline. Any user of any DSC system found using lT resources for unethical and/or inappropriate practices has violated this policy and is subject to disciplinary proceedings including suspension of DSC privileges, expulsion from school, termination of employment and/or legal action as may be appropriate. Although all users of DSC's lT resources have an expectation of privacy, their right to privacy may be superseded by DSC's requirement to protect the integrity of its lT resources, the rights of all users and the property of DSC and the State.

[email protected] [email protected] Abstract – This article investigates the dynamic features of social tagging vocabularies in Delicious, Flickr and YouTube from 2003 to 2008. Three algorithms are designed to study the macro and micro tag growth as well as dynamics of taggers’ activities respectively. Moreover, we propose a Tagger Tag Resource LDA (TTR-LDA) model to explore the evolution of topics emerging from those social vocabularies. Our results show that (1) at the macro level, tag growth in all the three tagging systems obeys power-law distribution with exponents lower than one; at the micro level, the tag growth of popular resources in all three tagging systems follows a similar power-law distribution; (2) the exponents of tag growth vary in different evolving stages of resources; (3) the growth of number of taggers associated with different popular resources presents a feature of convergence over time; (4) the active level of taggers has a positive correlation with the macro-tag growth of different tagging systems; and (5) some topics evolve into several sub-topics over time, while others experience relatively stable stages in which their contents do not change much, and certain groups of taggers continue their interests in them.

  • A User-Oriented Performance Comparison of Video Hosting Services
    Computer Communications 116 (2018) 118–131 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Computer Communications journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/comcom A user-oriented performance comparison of video hosting services T ⁎ Alessio Botta ,a,b, Aniello Avallonea, Mauro Garofaloa, Giorgio Ventrea,b a University of Napoli Federico II, Napoli, Italy b NM2 srl, Napoli, Italy ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Internet streaming is responsible for a significant fraction of Internet traffic. It has been reported to account up to Network neutrality 70% of peak traffic in North American fixed access networks, and this figure is expected to reach 80% by Internet video streaming 2020 [1]. Regarding such a killer service of the Internet, much has been discussed regarding if and how video Network performance hosting providers violate or may violate neutrality principles, in order to give users a “better” service compared to their competitors or other services. In this paper, we provide a contribution to this discussion studying three video hosting providers (i.e. YouTube, Vimeo, and Dailymotion). Specifically, we analyze their delivery infra- structures, including where the servers that provide videos are located, and the performance from a user viewpoint. To assess the performance, we measure throughput and RTT as experienced by users watching real videos of different popularity from several locations around the world and at different day hours. We uncover the performance differences of these providers as a function of the different variables under control and move a step forward to understand what causes such differences. We also study the changes in the infrastructures and related performance over time, performing different measurement campaigns over different years.

    Syracuse University SURFACE Dissertations - ALL SURFACE May 2016 Netflix and the Development of the Internet Television Network Laura Osur Syracuse University Follow this and additional works at: https://surface.syr.edu/etd Part of the Social and Behavioral Sciences Commons Recommended Citation Osur, Laura, "Netflix and the Development of the Internet Television Network" (2016).

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.
