  • Content Remains King, but Youtube Builds the Throne of the Future Content Creation May Have the Lowest of All Barriers to Entry
    Sector Bulletin_ Digital Media and Internet Technology_ March 2014_ Content Remains King, but YouTube Builds the Throne of the Future Content creation may have the lowest of all barriers to entry. Anyone with access to a smartphone and wi-fi can create and distribute endless GBs of content. However, replicating this process at scale, demonstrating audience reach, authentication and measurement and then syndicating this content, that same list of creators contracts to a few. Fewer still are the options available to a producer to reach a mass audience in today’s increasingly fragmented, device agnostic world. Available platform alternatives include obtaining distribution with a major cable television or satellite operator, partnering with an over the top (OTT) provider such as Netflix, Hulu or Amazon, or joining one of thousands of multi-channel networks on YouTube . Distribution Alternatives National Cable Distribution Nirvana for any producer or content creator is signing a distribution agreement with a cable, telco or satellite provider. In October 2013, music mogul Sean Combs launched Revolt TV, filling the void of music television left by MTV. Revolt launched on both Comcast and Time Warner Cable to 25 million subscribers. It is rare for a new, non-repurposed cable channel to obtain national distribution. In addition to Combs’ celebrity (he produced a number of hit shows for MTV in the 2000s), the fledgling network looks to rely upon a strong online and social presence. The hope is the latter could help mitigate the cable TV boogieman of “cord cutting” or removal of cable service for other online or OTT alternatives.

    3003 Elmwood Avenue Rochester, New York 14618-2021 (585) 244-8496 e-mail: [email protected] August 6, 2014 Hon. Kathleen H. Burgess Secretary, Public Service Commission Three Empire State Plaza Albany, NY 12223-1350 Dear Ms. Burgess, The country is watching New York to learn if our state regulators believe a merger between two unpopular cable operators is in the best interest of New York residents. For the first time in a long time, the Public Service Commission has been empowered to provide much needed oversight over two companies that have enjoyed both deregulation and a near-monopoly across the region, particularly for High Speed Internet service at speeds above 10Mbps. New Yorkers, like the rest of the country, consistently rank both Comcast and Time Warner Cable as some of the worst companies around.1 The PSC has the power to facilitate franchise transfers that would effectively combine the two into one giant monolithic cable company dominating the northeastern U.S., or it can reject the proposed assignment of franchises to Comcast, letting both companies know “in the public interest” means something in New York State. 1http://arstechnica.com/business/2014/05/comcast-time-warner-cable-still-have-the-angriest-customers-survey- finds/ Section 222 of the New York Public Service law2 provides the PSC with the authority to reject the application for a transfer of a franchise, any transfer of control of a franchise or certificate of confirmation, or of facilities constituting a significant part of any cable television system unless, and I paraphrase, the transfer is in the public interest.

    Friends and Neighbors of the Orange County Fairgrounds Working for a Fairgrounds that is Focused on the Community PMB 5014 600 W Santa Ana Blvd, Ste 114A Santa Ana, CA 92701 [email protected] _________________________________________________________________________________________________ 8 June 2020 VIA E-MAIL Chair Sandra Cervantes and Board 32nd District Agricultural Association 88 Fair Drive Costa Mesa, CA 92626 E-Mail: Distribution List RE: Handling of OC Market Place Dear Chair Cervantes and Board: On May 20, 2020, Spectra submitted a letter to the 32nd District Agricultural Association (“32nd DAA”) seeking to terminate its contract to operate the OC Market Place. Although the basis cited in its letter for termination does not appear to be valid, Friends and Neighbors of the Orange County Fairgrounds encourages you to accept Spectra's termination, with the critical requirement that Spectra surrender to the 32nd DAA any property rights that it may have related to the OC Market Place or to any facilities which Spectra has in the OC Fairgrounds parking lot. This will create an opportunity for the 32nd DAA to investigate how best to use its valuable resources, which have been occupied by the legacy OC Market Place operation, to support the 32nd DAA's mission and its core functions. Unfortunately, the OC Market Place reflects a 50 year old business model that appears to be at the end of its natural life-cycle. Orange County Market Place was founded in 1969 by Tel-Phil Enterprises, which included the Teller family in addition to other investors. Tel-Phil was the sole operator until the business was sold to Ovations Fanfare LP in 2016.
