Abstract:
Like many other industries, television has been disrupted by the Internet, with a growing amount of content delivered to audiences via streaming. The mechanisms involved are substantially different from traditional television delivery, yet the two forms will continue to coexist for some time. Meanwhile, OTT has greater agility to adopt new formats than traditional delivery schemes, and therefore content suppliers are being asked to deliver new components to OTT providers at a rapid pace. This session will address how audio is changing for OTT delivery, presented from the perspectives of technology providers, content producers and service operators.
