Good WAVO info from CNET 12/1/98:

"WaveTop is supported by consumer-brand charter advertisers. They include companies such as EMI Records, Hewlett Packard, and Nissan Motor Corp..

Separately, the company announced an agreement with Wave Systems to utilize Wave Systems' Embassy E-Commerce content metering and payment system. The company said this agreement will enable the broadcast of pay-per-view, subscription and rental content such as games, information services and video services to WaveTop subscribers.

Microsoft has accumulated a 2.88 percent stake in WavePhore. The software giant bought into its partner without the knowledge of WavePhore management. Microsoft bought 500,000 shares in November 1997, making the company, along with Intel which also owns 500,000 shares, the second-largest shareholder in WavePhore, said WavePhore's chief operating officer Glen Williamson earlier this year."
