The Problem Cable & TV broadcast are capable of having 100M viewers watch the same show at once, but the internet still struggles with 500k concurrent viewers –In March 2008 Oprahs website tried to stream content to 1m viewers and failed at 360k concurrent streams. The cost for 10m concurrent viewers on the internet is still about 10x than on Cable. Ad CPM pricing is still an issue on the web as advertisers are still not willing to pay Cable or TV rates for web CPMs –Cable rates have gone up over time while the number of viewers has gone down – leading to an increase in rates per user over time. –However, these same advertisers are not paying the same rates online because the quality and scalability has not yet been matched. Opportunity = by solving the scalability and cost problem, companies can charge premium rates similar to those of cable TV on the internet and the majority of TV content will become available on the Internet. The first company to solve this puzzle will become the next Youtube. Web Streaming Solution
