RE:Ot? Still, competitors are creeping up. Telecom giants Comcast Corp. and Verizon Communications Inc. have streaming delivery services, as do other smaller companies like NeuLion, Brightcove, iStreamPlanet and Ooyala.
“I don’t think the winners are going to be decided purely on the basis of technical solutions, but increasingly about the service model and their competitiveness” on price, says Kevin Conroy, chief strategy and data officer at Spanish-language broadcaster Univision Communications Inc. Univision chose NeuLion over MLBAM 18 months ago to power its live and on-demand streaming service UVideos, people close to Univision say.
