We are quickly moving to an all-digital world.  If you're selling your content on audio and video tapes, consider now repurposing your content for sale on Data CD's.

Why not host all of your digital media on the Internet for sale?

There is a place for digital media on the Internet.  Technically, you can digitize your audio and video tapes, put a shopping cart together, and sell "streams" of digital media.  But does it make financial sense?

If you want to invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in dedicated servers, digital rights management, streaming bandwidth....you get the picture.  Plus, how many of your customers have a high-speed connection to the Internet?

Even when you have a high-speed connection to the Internet, how many times do you see "Net Congestion...Buffering", when trying to play media?  We don't think the financial model makes sense.

Why put my content on a CD?

CD's are cheap.  In bulk, they can be purchased for less than a dollar each.  Depending on quantity, you can replicate the CD anywhere from $1.00 to $5.00 each.

No Generation Loss.   Every get frustrated when reviewing copies of video tapes?  Since CD's are all digital, you can make a million copies of copies and never loose the quality.

PAL vs. VHS.  When duplicating tapes, one of your many choices is selling overseas.  If you want access to that market, you better format in PAL.  Yep...more money. Not an issue with CD's.

Massive Content.  We produced a CD that contain over 8 hours of video for our clients.  For our audio clients, we fit over 100 hours of spoken word on 1 CD!  What would it cost for you to put all of that content on video and audio tapes?

Relationship Building.  We use web technologies to encode and author our content.  When your customers play your CD, they are viewing everything within a web browser.  Hyperlinks are placed in the presentation to lead back to your website (to generate more sales).

Index Your Content. Ever try indexing a video or audio tape? We use the Virage™ video indexer to create a play list and thumbnail index of your video content.  Now, when your customers review their content, they can jump right to the chapter they want.

Synchronize Your Content.  Many of our clients use Microsoft PowerPoint™ to support their presentation.  We synchronize the video stream to the PowerPoint slide of your presentation.  It's almost like being there!

No Content Limitation.  When you sell a VHS Video, all you get is video.  But when you sell a CD, the sky is the limit.  Include audio, video, animation, text, graphics...if you can see it on your web browser, you can put it on a CD.
