Time Warner Inc. is a vast media and communications corporation spanning the filmed entertainment, Internet, cable television, programming networks and publishing worlds. The company emerged from its bruising merger with AOL only to face government investigations and investor backlash. But against this backdrop, Time Warner has been leveraging its collection of industry-leading companies to push ahead on an array of Television 2.0 initiatives.
IP Media Monitor and Emerging Media Dynamics are therefore proud to announce the release of our February Spotlight on Television 2.0 Leaders report. The spotlight this month is on Time Warner Inc. and the timing couldn't be better. This report comes on the heels of Time Warner's pact with its dissident shareholders and amid intensified activity by the company to mount new online and mobile video services.
The report provides a solid foundation in all of Time Warner's businesses, highlighting the operational and financial performance of each major activity that comes under the Time Warner umbrella. You'll learn which of the company's businesses are the most reliable contributors to Time Warner's bottom-line, and which businesses are the most vulnerable to technological shifts.
More importantly, this report delivers the most up-to-date information and insight into Time Warner's varied Television 2.0 efforts, from the creation of an online video portal in In2TV to Warner Brothers experiment with peer-to-peer video delivery in Europe.
Our analysis also takes a look at AOL, which is a hot-bed of Television 2.0 activities within the Time Warner universe, and presents a bold look at how AOL's ramped-up video efforts might affect the online service's advertising revenue.
