Changing the Economics of Flash Delivery with Highest Quality of Service

The Velocix Network is optimised for the demands of delivering live and
on-demand multimedia and video assets to vast global audiences. For each
viewer request, the choice of Adobe Flash Media Server to stream content is
made dynamically based on traffic conditions, viewer location and bandwidth
economics. This ensures the most cost effective delivery and highest quality
viewer experience available on the market. In addition, Velocix provides
advanced real time reporting of viewer demographics by country (and State for
the US), Geo-blocking capabilities and token based authentication, enabling
high quality pay-per-view services to be deployed.

Velocix Video - Flash Streaming was used for live video broadcast of this
year's Singapore National Day Parade celebrations on the 9th August, marking
42 years of independence. The live Internet broadcast drew a large global
audience on the day and the on-demand availability of a streamed recording
has proven extremely popular both at home and with the large community of
Singaporeans now living abroad.

"The use of Flash as a solution for distribution of video and media has
grown rapidly and Adobe's recently announced support for the H.264 video
standard takes this a step further by enabling an HD television quality
experience over the Internet." said Phill Robinson, Chief Executive Officer
