ATTENTION: Proprietary streaming technology means recurring revenues in $2.8 billion media market.
The newest and hottest IT growth opportunity is streaming media – estimated by Jupiter Media to be a $2.8 billion market in 2005. Streaming media is not new, but until recently the tools to make it readily accessible and affordable have been lacking.
Now, Data Fortress Systems Group Ltd. is leveraging its IT expertise with proprietary new technology that creates powerful opportunities for recurring revenues: TV over IP – a technology that has even Microsoft excited. As one of the earliest entrants in the field of streaming TV, Data Fortress currently enjoys a first-mover advantage over other companies that are still just exploring this new technology.
Using Data Fortress’s unique PPV (Pay Per View) Appliance, virtually any web portal or Internet content provider can quickly, easily and inexpensively serve streaming TV content to paying subscribers. The self-contained, “one-box” Appliance delivers high quality video streams over the Internet, while enabling automated encoding, decoding, encrypting, DRM, intergraded payment processing and web hosting. It also integrates seamlessly with the new Microsoft Media Center.
Late last November (2004) Data Fortress launched a new venture, IPFlix, to sell live television content from Korea, China, Philippines and South Africa, over IP, to expatriates of those countries. IPFlix has already signed agreements with suppliers for up to 80 mainstream and specialty TV channels.
Data Fortress is a Service & Network Application Provider. It builds and deploys high-bandwidth network connectivity to medium and large enterprises, and sells applications and recurring services over the Internet.
Selling recurring services enables Data Fortress to build long-term relationships with its clients and enjoy a predictable cash flow. In a recent, near one-half million dollar, seven-year deal, the company expanded its private network services to one of Canada’s leading universities.
CONCLUSION: Keep a close eye on this company – it seems poised for a strong, sustained leap higher.
