The number one challenge highlighted for operators of streaming services is the complexity of coordinating global launches across multiple territories as they expand. Another key concern is piracy and security. ZOO’s strategy, using the company’s revolutionary, cloud-based approach, positions it well to address the challenges of the rapidly growing entertainment industry.
In the last year alone ZOO has launched three technological innovations. These include an ultra-secure digital screener for streaming video content; an enriched metadata service to enable content discovery and a compliance editing service to adapt TV and movie content for different territories during international release.
