User Generated Content: Beneath the Hype, Who Will
Be Making Money and How?
Google spending 1.65 billion on You Tube has the TV
industry wondering how search engines will impact
the broadcast industry. Was it a smart move? EMarketer
estimates that $385 million will be spent on online
video ads, equating to just over 2% of the total $15
billion or so in online advertising estimated this
year. Why do VCs scurry to invest in new advertising
models? What is the impact for traditional technology
and media companies? Who will generate revenue from
the personal video distribution--aggregate consumer
content sites like YouTube; major media owners like
MySpace and Fox; channel providers like Brightcove
and DaveTV? and How can traditional consumer electronics
companies get in on the action?

11:30-12:20: What Consumers
Demand
Media owners, Internet portals, IP services, and consumer
electronics vendors are making large investment in
development of new products & services to serve
the digital home. But what do consumers say they actually
want? Here top analysts address consumer needs
and wants in the home with some surprising results.
Top industry analyst share their research and survey
findings. Issues addressed include:
1.
How do consumers consume video and audio content?
What type of control do they want to exert?
What is their reaction to Tivo, IPTV and HDTV? Will
they watch content on their PC or mobile phone?
2.
How do consumers make purchasing decisions? Who makes
the decision for the family? What role to tech savvy
youth play in their parents purchasing decisions?
What are the key products and services that consumer
most favor? What are types of purchases, brands,
and amounts spent by consumers? What kind of devices,
features and functions, are desired by consumers and
when will these be launched and available?
3.
What are the trends for mobile and digital content
delivery? What are the key drivers and inhibitors?
What are the most popular Internet services, free
or paid? Which Internet billing models are most successful:
subscription; pay per use; free content supported

11:30-12:20: The Role of Internet
for the Networked Home
We focus on how digital entertainment will move around
the home to different displays, as well as outside
the home and on the go in portable devices.
What will be the role of the Internet connected devices
in the living room(PCs, audio, hybrid STBs)
Should
the goal of the OEMs and content providers be to offer
whole home distribution of entertainment media to
any device that is capable of playing digital media?
The challenging question for the CE and PC OEM's is
how that
will happen: Wired, wireless, cable, poweline
etc. Hear from decision makers for OEMs and
hardware makers whose goal it is to provide the whole
home distribution of media over the media network.
Will
Apple blow the top right off this when ITV hits the
shevles next spring? How will the rest of the industry
rush to provide similiar solutions at similiar price
points? It is important to understand the goal
of the OEM's and content providers which is whole
home distribution of entertainment media to any device
that is capable of playing digital media.

Gen and Networked Games
Games
are evolving from static, disc-bound products to creatures
of the Net. The living room plays a growing role in
a gaming world where Xbox 360 players from around
the world talk to each other in real time, PSPs download
MP3s, photos and MPEG-4 videos, and top Doom players
compete for fat purses in packed arenas. Similar to
other Internet content, the way to get to the masses
is to include free and ad-supported revenues offerings.
In-game advertising is becoming an attractive model
and major brands are starting to integrate advertising
with gaming. We address
business models and shifting demographics including
emerging market opportunities and next gen games.

2:30-3:30: Does Big Brother
Control the Set-Top?
The biggest players in the Digital Living Room are
preparing to battle for control of the consumer's
set top: DirecTV is taking on its former supplier,
TiVo, in the digital video recorder market; SBC has
hired Motorola and Scientific Atlanta to create a
box that handles television programming, video-on-demand,
digital video recording and interactive applications.
What will the next-generation set-top box look like
and who will control it? What is the impact on content
creation? How will it change the way consumers view
content? We also consider how the quality may
vary for set top box, VOD, HDTV and Blu Ray
for sound and visual appeal.

5:15-6:15: Personalization of
Content: Impact of HD, DVRs and VOD On Consumer TV
Viewing Habits and Advertising
Recent
syndication rights for Arrested Development, which
saw rights granted for standard, internet, and HD
is an indication of the importance of High Definition.
As cable MSOs, satellite providers, and IPTV companies
begin to offer service, can HD serve as a differentiator?
How much longer until HD VOD is a requirement? Will
HD VOD help force and end to next generation DVD format
wars? Will an upstart like moviebeam and its datacasting
technology be the company to bring HD to the masses?
Consumers demand to watch their favorite movies and
TV shows on their own schedules is transforming TV,
making digital video recorders and video-on-demand
part of every network executive's lexicon. How are
the two technologies morphing and performing in the
marketplace? How will IPTV change the equation? And
can emerging services that allow consumers to download
or stream programming over the Internet compete?
