Convergence big item at Vegas conferences
NAB, A.G. Edwards media confabs set for next week

LAS VEGAS (CBS.MW) -- Multimedia convergence will be one of the main themes here next week as some of media's biggest players gather to discuss how to bring television, radio and the Internet together.

The events will include speeches and panel discussions with new media moguls -- such as Yahoo's Jerry Yang, Broadcast.com's Mark Cuban, and WebTV's Steve Pearlman -- and more traditional players like Time Warner's Ted Turner. FCC Chairman William Kennard and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) will discuss regulatory issues.

The National Association of Broadcasters holds its 1999 spring convention April 17-22, while St. Louis-based brokerage A.G. Edwards (AGE: news, msgs) conducts a media conference April 19-22.

Both Las Vegas conferences take place against a backdrop that finds traditional media players trying to leverage their mass audiences into new revenue streams -- interactive and otherwise.
