Streaming Vendor News Recap For The Week Of March 23rd
Here’s a recap of all the announcements from streaming media vendors that I saw for the week of March 23rd. Lots of news leading up to NAB. A note to vendors, please stop with the silly “world’s first” langauge. Four releases this week used that phrase which is nothing more than marketing language. It’s not a term that customers care about or one that resonates with them.
