We define the conditions
under which we are ready
to license our content!
We already paid for content,
why pay for technology?
We are not getting more revenues
why investing in consumer plattforms?
Who pays for it?

I can‘t wait until
Sex and the city is
shown again. I want
to watch series #3 now.
This movie won the oscars,
why can‘t I watch it in Germany now?
Apps should be free!
Why buy an Android App?
I want to watch the movie
In my home cinema
environment in HD & DTS

Keep everyone in the value chain happy

Some Success Factors …
Build the business:
Make sure everyone in the value chain survives!
Offer attractive prices to the end customer
Economy of Scale
Reduce zoo of technologies + few technology companies serve high
volume (e.g. one DRM backend for multiple retailers, DRM middleware,..)
Optimize the user experience
Offer high quality, don’t restrict use, let content flow!
Review traditional business models
Make (all) content available, listen to customer’s needs!
E.g. Adapt release windows (Pirated movies are available prior release date!);
There are no longer platform/bearer specific customers (e.g. only cable,
only TV)
