Pando on Beet TV
Laird and I ran into Andy Plesser of Beet.tv at Streaming Media East a few weeks ago and chatted about P2P. Here’s the short clip. Its crazy to think that we were talking about passing 7 Million installs just three weeks ago and we’ve already passed 8 Million.
Andy writes on his blog:
Pando works well. Here at Beet.TV, we use it to send large files to editors and associates. There are ways that pulishers can directly embed a code for big file right onto a blog or Web page. Whether Pando capitalizes on the distribution of big video files or the CDN companies, it’s hard to say. What is very clear is that the quality of online video is going to improve and those files are going to get bigger. Someone’s gonna have to move this stuff.
We think its actually going to be CDNs and Pando working together to deliver high quality, full-screen video cost efficiently to millions of people. We’ve architected the Pando Platform exactly for that; seamless, transparent collaboration with traditional CDN web servers without any configuration. More on that after we unveil the upcoming Pando Publisher on June 21st at Supernova 2007.
