Re: In-app billing Revenue to grow steep, Opportunities for Two-Screen Experiences and Ancillary Revenue for TV industry

hdproductions — Wed, 15 Dec 2010 06:44:44 -0000

Appmarket.tv have put together an article thats really on the pulse right now.

I read the section regarding "Bango forecasts that for 2011 in-application charging will grow more than 600 percent".It really does seem m-commerce and e-commerce opportunities combined with micro billing are enormous.

The digitizing TV industry is both the cause and effect plus a potential catalyst to generate and grow ancillary revenues.

Not surprised to read this but the key challenge will remain as quoted, "These challenges will fuel M&A, because media companies will need to buy in transaction know-how and because retailers must build their own audience-generation engines…

I remember another teenager who also created a an application that allowed people to share music, he was Shawn Fanning the guy behind Napster. Causing major disruption for the music industry, no doubt their will be other variants to Muzzic and Vevo will more or less become the equivalent of Hulu.

Re: Apple TV Talk, Talk, Talk, Talk | paidContent

Apple TV never caught on big really in the UK, so I wonder how the European experience or uptake will be. Whilst as an extension of iTunes where viewers/subscribers can select video programmes as opposed to music, it will boil down to value for money and the content options would need to be very attractive, in the light of hybrid/iptv.

Re: Survey Reveals Shift in Media Consumption Habits Across Generations

hdproductions — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 17:40:47 -0000

Seven in ten Americans (70%) feel it’s “important for me to always be accessible” and nearly eight in ten (78%) feel they are constantly connected with family, friends, and colleagues, regardless of physical location.

Many people I know also feel disconnected if the don't have a mobile phone, web access and e-mail on within easy reach at anytime.

Re: JW Player 5.0 Launches With Some Huge Upgrades

hdproductions — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 23:14:55 -0000

Well with a product that was good enough for the Youtube and a widely visited video site, to an open source application such as JW Player giving video content creators the flexibility to self host, customise/skin and generate ad revenue. Jeroen Wijering of Longtail video is adding himself to the heroes list and hall of fame for open source and media player deployment.

Re: Original Web Video Series = Success for Retail Shopping

I actually checked out the site as well I'm familiar with www.whowhatwear.com/ where two women stylist discuss fashion trends and what to wear. I wonder if they mall could have taken it further and got a range of concessions or business owners to sponsor a segment regarding there sector such as electricals/diy or toys etc.

Re: Akamai Exec Claims Broadcast Model Crumbling

hdproductions — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 15:54:29 -0000

The Broadcast network maybe crumbling due to fragmentation and competition in a tri-screen market, but in terms of revenue and content creation. Advertising and marketing spend online will find a way to partner and maximise the investment in video opportunities either as ads or brand content or ad supported partnerships.

Re: How Effective are Video Ads On Social Media Sites?

hdproductions — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 18:57:21 -0000

I find both video and rich media ads to be effective depending on how they are executed and relevant. On the otherhand some rich media ad such as the expanded banner rollover can be really annoying.

Re: Is Content 2.0 = Content as a Service (CaaS)

hdproductions — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 18:39:01 -0000

Hi CAAS is point made is an interesting one, but in a previous blog comment I has pasted on another site. There was an interesting point about the future of media content online and revenue. The argument put forward that the advertiser/sponsor funded model would not be disrupted as the revenue generated will either cover costs of production or that of distribution ie bandwidth/storage.

So Content creators can still get revenue, but those relying on a royalty basis may need to a Gerd Leornard states "It's a structural and licensing problem."

How true.
