Quova Media Illuminates Digital Rights Compliance with Limelight Networks
31 January 2006 Quova, Inc., the authority on IP Intelligence and leading provider of Internet geolocation data and services, today announced the official launch of Quova Media, the first geolocation solution ever developed specifically for online digital rights compliance. Quova has pioneered the use of geolocation in the delivery of live sporting events over the Internet, and Quova's technology has already enabled viewers worldwide to watch Major League Baseball, the Tour de France and the World Track and Field Championships live on their personal computers.
"Quova Media empowers broadcasters and other content providers to drive video feeds only to users in specific geographic locations, assuring compliance with regulatory and licensing requirements," said Scott Foote, Quova's SVP of Products. "The ability to make a reliable decision that controls where online content is delivered is absolutely critical to any business providing licensed content."
The flagship customer for Quova Media is Limelight Networks, the highest-performance content delivery network for digital media. Limelight is incorporating Quova's technology into its content delivery network to offer customers of its two services, Limelight Content Edge and Limelight MediaEdge Streaming, the precise geographic location of online users in order to comply with content rights restrictions.
"Our customers need highly accurate, highly granular data on user location in order to support the licensing requirements and business rules for everything from subscription video and pay-per-view to music and software downloads," said Mike Gordon, co-founder and chief strategy officer of Limelight Networks. "The addition of Quova Media gives Limelight the ability to deliver the industry's highest levels of IP Intelligence and geographic precision no matter the type of content to be delivered or IP-enabled device to which it is destined."
"Limelight Networks has established a unique, premium role in the content delivery industry, and we're pleased that they view Quova in the same light," said Gary Jackson, COO of Quova. "The rapid growth of available online media and the increasing sophistication of digital distribution services will mean a strong market for the best technologies available. Content owners are seeing that with high-quality delivery, consumers will gladly pay for on-demand programming, and Limelight and Quova are working together to make sure that market demand is met."
