Transaction Objectives An integrated media company in a rapidly evolving multi platform world, New and diverse revenue streams, Cost reductions. Cross promotional synergies.

WHAT’S wrong with media today? “MTVratings are down about 24% in the 4th quarter as younger viewers find online entertainment substitutes. Streaming video sites like hulu.com and Netflix Inc. ‘s website offer a growing number of TV shows and movies and are gaining popularity as more consumers turn to their computers to watch TV.” - -Anthony J. DiClemente (Barclays Capital analyst), as quoted in the Associated Press Viewing patterns are shifting away from traditional ad-supported TV, Need to significantly reduce production costs and adapt content for online distribution. Social networks have not yet harnessed the power of integrating professionally produced video content to enhance user experiences.

Where is media going? CNN had the Web 2.0 approach down pat for the inaugural with a high-quality vid stream on its site next to Facebook users’ live status updates. (Daily Variety, Jan 2009) Online advertising is experiencing slower growth. David Hallerman, a senior analyst at eMarketer.com, expects video ad revenue to grow 45% to $850 million in 2009, $1.25 billion in 2010, $1.85 billion in 2011, $3 billion in 2012, and $4.6 billion in 2013. User generated sites are ceding advertising market share to sites with studio-produced content. These drive the growth. Social networking should engage viewers directly and with one another via chat rooms, building awareness and demand for paid content and online subscriptions through use of video.
