Hello Cesare, > No, ITVU does not compete with RealNetworks. RNWK makes software > that streams different media types over the Internet. Correct ... they do not compete today ... maybe RealBroadcast Network (a portion of Real) competes with InterVu ... > ITVU is the hardware end of the business -- they are ones that > physically deliver the data over the network using their servers. They are not really in the "hardware" business, since they don't make hardware ... I would look at them as more of a "distributed Internet Application Service provider" ... they have built a distributed Internet service (out of off-the-shelf hardware/software and some custom developed software) that provides a "live multimedia" distribution infrastructure ... And as a shareholder of both RNWK and ITVU I couldn't be happier! ;-) Scott C. Lemon
