Charting a New Course for Content Through Pirate Waters

The entertainment industry’s treasure — its content — is being plundered.. In today’s digital world, we are under siege by organized crime, anonymous hackers, recalcitrant cyberlockers, and even our own customers. The first-ever Entertainment Content Protection Summit is a one-day download for everyone involved in entertainment content. This summit features experts responsible for protecting the industry’s assets in this vulnerable world of ubiquitous entertainment.

Any owner of premium content faces digital rights management challenges. How are sports leagues addressing content protection of both online and offline assets? League executives and their technology partners discuss their approaches to content protection. Vobile joins with league executive partners sharing experience on real time content identification, tracking and reporting solutions.

Through our televisions, laptops, mobile phones, tablet PCs and portable media players, we may be consuming several forms of media on several different devices at any given time. But who is driving video innovation across these devices? Since the best way to predict the future is to invent it, OMMA Video asked five recent start-ups to pitch us on how their unique technologies and approaches can transform the future video marketplace.

Frost & Sullivan's Best Practices Awards are presented each year to companies that are predicted to encourage significant growth in their industries, have identified emerging trends before they became the standard in the marketplace, and have created advanced technologies that will catalyze industries in the near future. The awards are presented June 8th in Anaheim, CA.

As recent huge success of 3D movie releases has shown, 3D brings an exciting new dimension to not only feature films and TV shows, but also live events such as concerts and sports games. Television broadcasters and cable programmers are increasing their investment in 3D video content. As the 3D explosion continues to progress, content protection using VideoDNA 3D is becoming essential to the new 3D video business.

To see the live demo, please visit the AMV 3D Truck located at the Sony booth at section C11001.

The conference theme will be "Measures against Copyright Infringement on the Internet Enforcement across the Border". The three day session is organized by Japan's Agency for Cultural Affairs and Copyright Information Center with cooperation from the Content Overseas Distribution Association. The agenda includes presentations from government and industry association officials from five countries. They will be addressing the regional and international concerns of copyright infringement then coming together to share ideas for international solutions.

Vobile is honored to be invited to participate in this international discussion of copyright issues on a global scale. Vobile's CEO Yangbin Wang will present on the topic of preventative measures against illegal media uploads.

Vobile joins other industry players for the Video Rights Roundtable, a NewTeeVee Live live-streamed session on the topic of online video copyright and syndication. Attendees will include these content owners, video sites and copyright service providers:

As content providers make more and more of their shows available online, the traditional business models for TV are being challenged. Protecting that revenue, and building on it, is critical to the success of content providers — and multichannel distributors. Today cable operators are exploring Internet "authentication" services, which grants access to troves of content not yet available online only to their video subscribers. But several key issues demand clarification. For example, how exactly will content be protected from piracy? This webcast will address the legal issues, the business opportunities and the technical solutions involved launching a successful authentication service. Moderated by: Mark Robichaux, Editor-in-Chief, Multichannel News. Panelists: Michael Bishara, Senior Vice President HBO Broadband, Lawrence Meli, President Vobile Inc.
