Content fuels an industry…
Digital video entertainment is a multi-billion dollar industry with competing operators, distributors, devices manufacturers and retailers all vying to capitalize on the latest technological advancements in order to fulfill consumer demand for a rich viewing experience, delivered anywhere, anytime, on any device.
Whether it’s new release movies delivered via cable, satellite and IPTV, or prime-time TV shows streamed to mobile handsets, or anything in between, all of the players in the digital video ecosystem have one thing in common: without content, there is no market for their product or service.
…and is worth protecting
Movie and television studios, for their part, have an obvious need to monetize content in order to fund future productions and keep their businesses viable. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the entire industry that all links in the distribution chain, from the operators’ head-end systems, to set-top boxes, to PC software, to portable media players in the digital home and beyond, remain protected against content piracy. That’s where Cloakware comes in.
