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.

  • Comcast Expanding X1 Device Lineup with IP-Only Client, Next-Gen Gateway
    Comcast Expanding X1 Device Lineup With IP-Only Client, Next-Gen Gateway By: Jeff Baumgartner The evolution of Comcast’s X1 video platform continues to take shape as the operator begins to introduce a small IP-only client device and moves forward with the development of a next-generation gateway device that can anchor the service. Comcast confirmed last week that it has begun to roll out the Xi3, an all-IP HD video client for the X1 platform, in select markets around the country. A Comcast official said the MSO is deploying the new Pace-made device slowly in a number of unidentified markets, and added that Comcast expects the device to become “widely available across our footprint in Q1 or Q2 of next year.” The X1 platform is currently being anchored by the XG1, a hybrid (MPEG/IP) HDDVR that Comcast is sourcing from Arris and Pace. The new Xi3 model will serve as a multi-room companion to XG1 and work with Comcast’s new Cloud DVR product. Postings on the DSL Reports message board also turned up evidence that Cisco Systems is among the suppliers working on a new version of an X1 gateway called the XG2. A Comcast official confirmed that the image is a rendering of a future iteration of the XG1 gateway, but declined to detail the technical specs or when Comcast expected to make it available. A person familiar with the initiative said that iteration is a headed gateway that won’t feature internal DVR storage, meaning it will likely work with Comcast’s Cloud DVR or support attached storage.

  • Retransmission-Consent Outlook DIFFICULT and Costly
    Retransmission-Consent Outlook DIFFICULT and Costly BY CHRIS CINNAMON, HEIDI SCHMID AND ADRIANA KISSEL n a video world where most operators deliver 150-plus channels, broad- cast stations represent no more than a small slice of channel lineups. Yet the carriage of a few broadcast channels involves a process that for many video providers, especially smaller ones, entails aggravating uncertainty, intense pressure and irrational cost increases. That process? IRetransmission consent. In about 12 months, video providers nationwide will receive certified “election letters” triggering the next round of retransmission-consent negotiations. The out- look for retransmission negotiations in 2011? Difficult and costly. To maximize the likelihood of success—and to minimize pain—preparation is key. Smaller provid- ers should begin preparations now. 32 RURALTELECOM > JULY-AUGUST 2010 ILLUSTRATION BY BRUCE MACPHERSON RTjuly.aug10.FINAL_cc.indd 32 6/18/10 10:07:11 AM RTjuly.aug10.FINAL_cc.indd 33 6/18/10 10:07:12 AM RETRANSMISSION CONSENT WHY NTCA IS CONCERNED About Comcast and NBC Universal By Steve Fravel, NTCA Manager, Video Services Those planning for retransmission-consent negotiations should keep an eye on the Comcast/NBC Universal merger, which could have ramifications for those negotiations. The merger between Comcast, the largest cable provider in the United States, and NBC Universal (NBCU), owner of national television network NBC, creates concern on several levels. Will multichannel video programming distributors (MVPDs) that compete with Comcast have access to the content cur- rently owned by NBC and Comcast at comparable and competitive terms? The fear is that Comcast will withhold access to “must have” content, or increase the licensing fees to unrealistic levels.
