interactive, scalable media. Management Team: Dr. Phillip Chen is an innovator developing and delivering game-changing technologies for twenty years.

He graduated from and served as a faculty member at the University of Maryland. Tom Trexler specializes in strategic planning for privately held companies, is also a joint professor of finance at Georgetown University and University of Maryland. Service Platform: anyON™ Software is freely distributed in two forms: Web plug-in & desktop application for PC & IMD (Internet Mobile Device). anyON™ Services for Internet broadcast are based on monthly plans at a fraction of the cost of traditional client/server solutions. The services accept live feed or any media from publisher; provide content hosting & guarantee live channel online 24x7. Viewers tune in a channel with Web browser empowered by the plug-in over the Internet. anyON™ Devices are optional for independent broadcaster to generate streaming from DVD, tape; live feed of camera, TV tuner or a third party URL source; and publish & share in various modes: broadcast via P2P, VOD and push between lossy networks or from behind firewall. Niche Markets: Internet videos grow exponentially; user generated content alone will surpass 65 billion views by 2010 according to In-Stat Market Research. However, the traditional client-server model cannot sustain the rapid growth; new distribution model is required for scalable media delivery, especially for live social channels. anyON™ was developed to meet such demands before YouTube was online. We first target niche applications in live events in faith-based communities, forums, trainings, marketing or campaigns for mid-sized businesses or organizations; then develop major channels with strategic content partners; and mash up social channels through viral promotion on social networks. Financial Models: Our business model is based on a minimal monthly fee charged for 30x24 hours live broadcast per dedicated channel. Other incomes include OEM licensing, media devices. Competitions: anyON™ TV is the only live broadcast platform for independent Web portals. Unlike YouTube that provides limited video clip upload & sharing service from central servers farm, anyON™ allows live broadcast on-demand from publisher-controlled, distributed or mobile sources. In contrast to Joost or Hulu that broadcasts selected channels from its proprietary portal, anyON™ empowers any business or grassroots to broadcast from its portal, schedule by itself, for its community, with controls of content, identity, end-users and revenue. anyON™ is the enabling platform for social media distribution with inherent affordability, scalability and flexibility. |
