Today and Tomorrow 18-19 June 2013  SMPTE is holding it’s first ever conference at the 1878 home of motion picture technology, Stanford University.  (see http://lcls.slac.stanford.edu/VideoViewMuybridge.aspx)

“Entertainment Technology in the Internet Age” addresses technical and business issues which arise from the increased capability of the Internet to deliver very high quality video content.  300+ attendees and presenters from major studios and internet companies (Apple being the one exception) attest to the importance of this subject matter to both content creators and internet service providers.

Information about the conference can be found at https://www.smpte.org/etia2013.   For those of you who are unable to attend in person, go to that link to watch live tonight’s session “Legal and Illegal Distribution Over the Internet: Can We Find Common Solution(s)?” 18:30-20:15 PDT.
