Product Description
BitGravity builds broadcast quality video delivery services for the Internet. In 2006, BitGravity delivered the first High Definition video delivery service for the Internet and today is introducing BG LiveBroadcast, the first carrier grade live broadcasting solution, which will make live video pervasive on the web. BG LiveBroadcast is a flash-based streaming service that delivers a simple, robust solution for content providers, with an unmatched user experience.
Market Opportunity
BitGravity believes that the $800 million content delivery network market is on the cusp of a major growth curve and anticipates this growth will be approximately 200 percent in 2008. According to Tier 1 Research, CDN service providers will see double-digit revenue growth in the coming quarters.
DEMO Says
As consumers demand a more television like experience from IP-based video and programming producers push the limits of delivery networks, new intrastructure, protocols, and delivery networks must step to the challenge of high definition video delivery. BitGravity has laid the foundation to meet that challenge and its live video delivery technology enables a range of rich video programming and opens new doors for producers and consumers alike.

I'm very interested in Bitgravity; in looking at the Tom Green example and the Tom Green show its not clear if that's the HD quality. I'm noticing some compression artifacts. Its better than Youtube but I'm wondering if we should expect sharper video in the future.
