Excerpt from:The CEOs of both CBS and now Time Warner have spoken out in favor of Hulu moving to an authentication model. Personally, it seems like an anti-trust suit to me in regards to Time Warner, who should have no say in the matter.
See the original post: Hulu Authentication is Bad Business Move, Cable Companies Bullying Consumers [Opinion]Toot the tooters and clink the clinkers, honk the honkers and hoot the hooters, it’s comScore video metrix time again. OK, maybe skip the hooters
Go here to see the original:This past January was a good one for Hollywood, although it goes to show that year-over-year comparisons for specific months is a pretty short-sighted way of looking at this particular business, which entirely relies on product.
comScore has released the October 2011 Video Metrix report and the first thing that caught my eye, which I prognosticated on over a month ago, was Tremor Video topping one billion video ads a month, and they did it... and are continuing to close in on Hulu who is just about 250 million ads up on them. Since I talked about video ads to start, I'll stick with it and get to the rest of the stats for the month in another article altogether.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship recently came to the Fox network, and people who had never watched the UFC before got to see a fight that lasted a little over a minute.

Yahoo, who changes their mind far more than, well… wants in on the online video deal, again. It almost seems like they got wind of what AOL was planning and said “Ooh! ooh! Us too!” Their on again, off again love affair with online video just seems like it is once again, going to end in heartbreak for the aging web portal and those who pay it any attention. Hey, having just returned to America after 6 years in Europe, I know it’s hard to get back into the dating scene and Yahoo doesn’t seem too afraid of trying once again to court (read lure) online video viewers back to their site
