Similar idea, but since MLB has its Productions service, things might become more monopolized through them over time.
If I remember correctly, the NHL is already using them as a provider for online streaming (as well as HBO Go for that matter).
- protomyth 11y ago...and WWE if I remember the press. An important difference is the MLB effort is more of an infrastructure play / turnkey solution versus an actual network. They don't provide content, just capability.
- spike021 11y agoTrue. Interesting change in direction though for how things are changing.
- protomyth 11y agoI think it showed great vision on the part of MLB. If you are going to build a platform for delivering your content, you might be a platform provider for the same. Strikes me as taking the lessons of Amazon and AWS to heart.
- spike021 11y agoI think that should be a goal for many situations. If you can build a high-quality tool/platform/etc. for yourself, then you could, eventually, share it.. especially if it's better than the typical alternatives.
