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.

  • “Over-The-Top” Television: Circuits of Media Distribution Since the Internet
    BEYOND “OVER-THE-TOP” TELEVISION: CIRCUITS OF MEDIA DISTRIBUTION SINCE THE INTERNET Ian Murphy A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Communication. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Richard Cante Michael Palm Victoria Ekstrand Jennifer Holt Daniel Kreiss Alice Marwick Neal Thomas © 2018 Ian Murphy ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Ian Murphy: Beyond “Over-the-Top” Television: Circuits of Media Distribution Since the Internet (Under the direction of Richard Cante and Michael Palm) My dissertation analyzes the evolution of contemporary, cross-platform and international circuits of media distribution. A circuit of media distribution refers to both the circulation of media content as well as the underlying ecosystem that facilitates that circulation. In particular, I focus on the development of services for streaming television over the internet. I examine the circulation paths that either opened up or were foreclosed by companies that have been pivotal in shaping streaming economies: Aereo, Netflix, Twitter, Google, and Amazon. I identify the power brokers of contemporary media distribution, ranging from sectors of legacy television— for instance, broadcast networks, cable companies, and production studios—to a variety of new media and technology industries, including social media, e-commerce, internet search, and artificial intelligence. In addition, I analyze the ways in which these power brokers are reconfiguring content access. I highlight a series of technological, financial, geographic, and regulatory factors that authorize or facilitate access, in order to better understand how contemporary circuits of media distribution are constituted.

Tobis : The Desperate Housewives Cookbook before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised The Desperate Housewives Cookbook: 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Excellent bookBy Mathew L. MorrisonI'm very passionate about cooking, and Desperate Housewives is my favorite show hands down. I really enjoy thi book; so far the recipes I have made were sucesses and the ones I have not tried look good. Susan's macaroni and cheese was a huge hit at a barbeque I attended, it went in 10 minutes and I was lucky to have gotten a serving for myself. The only problem for me is that this cookbook is not made with college students on budget in mind; I'm desperate to make Bree's Basil Puree, but have yet to get enough basil to make it...I"m getting there though. Excellent addition to any cook's collection.Now I'm ready to have a volume two in this collection, a few things could include Katherine Mayfair' brioche, lemon pie, and her baking. Bob and Lee could be included with recipes for cocktails, and Angie Bolen's Italian family recipes would also be a great addition to the cookbook.
