Vusion Exits Stealth-Mode to Reach Massive Audiences With HD Quality Video Over the Internet

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Vusion, Inc., providers of instant-on, full-screen, HD quality streaming video, today announced its formal company launch, leaving behind its stealth-mode name of 'Jittr Networks'. Vusion will deliver the industry's first end-to-end online video distribution service capable of providing the scalability and reach to serve true HD and DVD quality video to 95 percent of all broadband consumers.

The high bandwidth fees and limited reach of current content delivery technologies has made streaming video a loss leader for even the most highly trafficked web properties. Vusion's technology has been designed to answer the great demand among media companies and content providers for an end-to-end service to efficiently monetize assets through the delivery of high-quality video over the standard Internet.

"Recent industry research shows that the digital media market is the fastest growing sector of the Internet, and video, in particular, will soon represent 90 percent of all Internet traffic," said Elie Habib, Vusion President and CEO. "Media companies positioned to provide the highest quality viewing experience with their video content will inevitability generate more page views and deliver better value for their advertisers. Vusion is the first in the market to deliver true 720p HD quality video in the scale, clarity and reliability that the Internet user population demands."

"Radical changes in the way that end users access and consume video content are driving both viewers and advertising revenues to rapidly shift from television to the Internet," said Aaron Crayford, Founder and CTO. "Our technology is ideally suited for media companies looking to move from delivering short format, low quality video to longer-play, high-definition video in order to better monetize their assets, differentiate their online presence and generate increased Web traffic."

Vusion's Founder and CTO invested four years of research and development to create the next generation core network infrastructure and proprietary WARP technology, which is based on intelligent distributed computing algorithms, in order to deliver truly next generation Quality of Service.

Vusion's advanced WARP technology is a significant departure from traditional content delivery networks. Utilizing a dense architecture with ten times the throughput of standard data centers, WARP enables Vusion's service to scale to tens of millions of concurrent users. By providing the scalability and reach to serve 95 percent of the broadband population, Vusion ensures that the maximal part of the monetizable market will be able to access and stream HD content from its customer's web properties.
