Topic: Content Delivery via the Internet: Legitimate Distribution Models and Unauthorized Distribution
A general overview of content delivery via the Internet will be given. Content piracy trends will be described including those more specific to motion picture distribution via the Internet, including IRC (Internet Relay Chat) and peer to peer activity. Current and future anti-piracy enforcement alternatives will be discussed by our speaker from a company that specializes in content piracy tracking and anti-piracy alternatives.
The session promises to be informative and provide key information to anyone involved in motion picture creation, post production and distribution. As content delivery via Internet expands, understanding both its opportunities and liabilities is essential.
