Introduction Market Data Compact

Anyone follow or heard of this company?

They recently came out with their IPO in March that was unsuccessful due to the disastrous conditions of the new issue market, BUT , they had a very strong underwriting team including Hambrecht & Quist, Montgomery Securities & Cowen & Company.

Macrovision is the leader in encryption technology for VHS tapes, encrypting over 1.5 BILLION since 1985, along with being a major player in the DVD encryption technology, if not the future DE FACTO standard. This recent article shows the type of powerful alliances they currently have with DVD manufacturers.

Please post your thoughts and comments. I think this is going to be a huge winner in the very near future.

BTW, their website is macrovision.com
