    69 IASA RESEARCH GRANT REPORT: a STUDY on the CHANGING PRICES of AUDIOVISUAL DIGITIZATION, 2006–2015 Rebecca Chandler, Avpres

    ARTICLE IASA RESEARCH GRANT REPORT: A STUDY ON THE CHANGING PRICES OF AUDIOVISUAL DIGITIZATION, 2006–2015 Rebecca Chandler, AVPreserve, USA Introduction Over the past five years in the United States and Europe there has been a decisive decline in the cost of digitization, resulting in historically low prices. This has been due to a variety of rea- sons, ranging from innovation to marketplace competition. With a shortening window of time in which to act, this economic advantage has been a boon to organizations with holdings of legacy audiovisual media. This is widely recognized and discussed among managers and budget holders within organizations. However, what has not been evaluated effectively is whether or not we are currently in a digitization market bubble. We hypothesize that obsolescence, degradation, and market factors will begin to place the cost of digitization back on an upward trajectory. What we do not know is how the curve will look. Our experience indicates that organizations are unwilling to believe that prices will increase at the same rate that they decreased, or that they will ever again reach even 50% of what they were just five years ago. However, these discussions are often emotionally-driven and take place without a well-laid foundation of data from which to judge. With the support of an IASA Research Grant, we set out to design a project that would begin to amass a shared and computable dataset that can help us ask questions and provide projections about our hypothesis. The goal of this project is to quantify and chart in detail the historical pricing trends for digitization over the past 10–15 years.

  • DV Vs. Betacam SP: 4:1:1 Vs

    DV Vs. Betacam SP: 4:1:1 Vs

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Copyright ⎩ 1997 Roger Jennings, all rights reserved. Written May 20, 1997. Parts of this document will appear in the author's Special Edition Using Desktop Video to be published by Que Books, an imprint of Macmillan Computer Publishing, in Fall 1997. This document may be copied and/or distributed for non-commercial purposes only. DV vs. Betacam SP: 4:1:1 vs. 4:2:2, Artifacts and Other Controversies Sony Corp.'s Betacam SP format is the standard of comparison of video tape recording formats. According to Sony Europe, more than 350,000 Betacam SP devices have been sold world-wide. The majority of broadcast electronic news gathering (ENG) operations currently use Betacam SP camcorders and VTRs. Virtually all broadcast stations require (or at least strongly prefer) Betacam SP source footage. Most clients of professional video production firms specify Betacam SP for industrial shoots and are likely to require videographers to use Sony or Ikegami camcorders. Although the M-II format from Panasonic Broadcast and Digital (formerly Television) Systems Company (PB&DSC) offers about the same performance as Betacam SP, Sony and Betacam SP are untouchable when it comes to brand recognition and status. As a result, all other video recording formats are ranked as "not up to Beta SP," "equal to Betacam SP," or "better than Beta SP." These comparisons, based on the beholders' perception of image quality, are reminiscent of the meaningless "broadcast quality" and "studio quality" bullet points on advertisements for consumer and low-end prosumer video gear. The advent of the Digital Video (DV) format has ignited a controversy among current and prospective users of DV gear.

Finally, there is the cost, with cumulative licensing fees accounting for a substantial proportion of a BD disc’s manufacturing cost. BEFORE A CONTENT HOLDER CAN PUT CONTENT onto a BD disc and get it replicated, the holder needs to be licensed by the BDA licence entity.The BDA’s licensing activities include distributing the BD format books, logo guide and data, and issuing a compliance certification after a BD disc has undergone a stiff verification and testing process. There are several elements to the BD licensing scheme. Content holders, distributors and providers wanting to put content onto BD must take out a Content Participant Agreement, which costs $3,000 a year and runs for five years. There’s also a ‘light’ version that costs $500 a year and also runs for five years. There is no fee for the use of a Logo Licence Agreement, and there is an optional BD-Live Logo and Online Certificate Issuance Agreement, which incurs no charge, although there is a fee of $1,000 per private key. There are other BD licensing obligations. Disc replicators need to take out a BD-ROM mark interim agreement with Sony, Philips or Panasonic, while content providers must take out an AACS licence (see table, page 18). There’s also the option of taking out a BD+ licence for enhanced copy protection available from BD+ Technologies. Eric Carson, business unit manager, media manufacturing solutions, DCA, says:“The ROM mark is a nightmare – it’s the biggest pain point.
