“Move’s adaptive streaming was the breakthrough invention which proved that primetime television programming and professional long form video can be reliably delivered over the Internet at the high resolution quality that is intended – despite the unreliable network conditions typically present on the Internet,” said Drew Major, the inventor of adaptive streaming and founder of Move Networks. “Following our market introduction in 2006, practically every major online video provider – including Akamai, Apple, Adobe, Limelight, Microsoft, Netflix, Widevine and several others – has deployed an adaptive bit rate architecture inspired by our invention. We are pleased to see that the USPTO has recognized our technical achievements that make quality IP video delivery a reality. We look forward to continuing our efforts to further the boundaries with similar ongoing technology innovation.”
