4:30 PM - 5:30 PMMulti-screen TV: Show Me the Money
Multi-screen video is part of everyone's strategy, but many early efforts aren't generating any extra revenue for service or content providers. A number of potential new revenue models exist, ranging from subscription fees to mobility charges to a la carte options. Several potential new types of advertising are possible as well. Some of these models face potential regulatory or legal hurdles, however. This panel will explore these new options, the opportunities they raise, the challenges they face and what service providers can and should be doing to monetize their multi-screen services.
