Beem launches into Technical Beta

JunoInteractive — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 00:37:30 +0000

New Australian online VOD service, Beem, has just released a technical beta to a select group of testers.

The Beem service is targetted at users who want the convenience of accessing TV show and movie content on any device, at any time, in any place. At this stage, Beem is focussing on delivery to PC / Mac computers, as the majority of online video content consumption occurs on these devices.

Beem utilises Juno Interactive’s VOD streaming technology.

The Australiasian Media & Broadcast Congress drew to a close last week with some great presentations from the local and global industry on the state of TV, Radio, Print and online – with a day dedicated to online video.

Jimmy Storrier from Juno Interactive presented on “Online Video Revenue Models: What works, what doesn’t and why?” and the whitepaper he wrote as part of that presentation is attached.

“When the climatic finale of the television series ‘Lost’ aired earlier this year, BitTorrent news service TorrentFreak estimated that 15% of all torrent downloads of the final episode originated from Australia, despite the country representing only 0.3% of the world’s population.” – for the full article, click here: http://bit.ly/cDYWwp

tvauscast podcast: interview edition

JunoInteractive — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 10:40:02 +0000

I was interviewed by Cameron from tvauscast this afternoon. I got a chance to talk about where I think the online video market is headed globally.

I always find it hard to not do a brain dump whenever I’m talking about the industry, but think I was fairly restrained this time around, which may indicate a new stage of Zen in my life.

Check out the podcast interview here and if you love TV, add tvauscast to your reader.

Juno Interactive in the media today

JunoInteractive — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 07:38:09 +0000

Well, it’s been quite a day. Dave and I put together a press release which we circulated to a few online news blogs and sites we thought were relevant for what we’re doing, and also some of the more traditional media outlets, and the response blew us away. I mean, we’re not launching Kinect so didn’t expect we’d set the world on fire, but the response we did get helped us validate the fact that we’re doing the right thing.

This really isn’t about us trying to become billionaires. We didn’t start Juno Interactive to get rich fast. Far from it. We’re really in this because like a lot of people out there in Australia, we were tired of not being able to get great TV and movie content online here in Australia, while there were multiple services offering online video content in the US and UK. We’re trying to kick start the revolution, not get onto Bentley’s mailing list.

Today we got some great write ups from Gizmodo, TheNextWeb and Delimiter, three blogs you should have added to your reader if you’re even remotely interested in tech in Australia, and staffed by some incredibly passionate and enthusiastic people.

I’ve pulled the links together here all in one place:
