OWNZONES Makes Big Leap Forward In IMF Advancements, Speeding Past Its Competitors And Offering Disruptive PricingBEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Jan. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In a major technology breakthrough, OWNZONES Media Network has transcended distribution barriers by introducing the world's fastest Interoperable Master Format (IMF) delivery platform. In an effort to make IMF more commercially viable, OWNZONES is also offering a compelling "Pay As You Go" model, allowing companies and content owners the opportunity to cost effectively distribute assets in the new SMPTE IMF format standard to destination points without delay or upfront investments. The first end-to-end IMF workflow, under the banner of OWNZONES Connect, is delivered via cloud-based SaaS services and provides next-generation video collaboration features. To date, OWNZONES Connect has delivered over 10,000 movies to many destination points, including Apple TV, Amazon and Comcast. "OWNZONES has taken the digital distribution process to the cloud, providing increased efficiency due to a state-of-the-art, all-cloud workflow that is more scalable for faster processing at a lower cost," said Dan Goman, CEO at OWNZONES, in making the announcement today. "The speed of our new solution is setting records in digital distribution, and it's a first for the IMF industry," said Aaron Sloman, Chief Technology Officer at OWNZONES. "Traditional companies do their transcoding one job at a time and this takes all day. OWNZONES Connect processes movies 40+ times faster than competing products and, using the power of the cloud, it can handle as many jobs a customer needs all at the same time. With our pricing, increased speed and scalable solution, we have eliminated the major impediments which have previously prevented companies from transitioning to IMF." Sloman added: "With our cloud-based, SaaS platform, companies no longer have to pre-buy expensive software and overpriced specialized hardware. Clients only pay for the minutes they use." Demonstrating the power of the new innovations, Sloman will unveil at this year's CES more details on groundbreaking features that allow OWNZONES Connect to break all the barriers to adopting IMF, including:
The Interoperable Master Format is a SMPTE standard for providing a single, interchangeable master file format and structure for the distribution of content between businesses around the world. IMF provides a framework for creating a true file-based final master. With delivery centers in Los Angeles, Bucharest and Belgrade, OWNZONES builds solutions that combine agile expertise with Silicon Valley innovation to help its clients be more responsive to a changing market dynamic.
