Is UltraFlix competing with Netflix and the other OTT services for streaming rights to UHD titles? I remember at CES hearing that UltraFlix had a number of exclusive streaming rights to some very popular movies.


Marken: Actually we have a good relationship with Netflix and the other services. We are building out UltraFlix as a definitive UHD channel for viewers. If you want to watch the best in UHD content you go to the UltraFlix channel and choose from the various UHD options – Netflix, clothing design, home design, travelogues, TV series, movies, etc. Then you can choose in the various venues. If you click on Netflix you have everything they offer in UHD. We are working to enhance UltraFlix just as Netflix and Amazon have enhanced their engines so it learns from your search and viewing habits and brings up the most logical options first or makes intelligent suggestions based on your past history. In a different light if you have been playing MMO [massively multiplayer online] games– free, freemium, premium – in the Google catalog it will offer up similar single, group, MMO game suggestions. Yes we do see the Nuvola box being very widely purchased first as a UHD streaming entertainment/information solution but also see it becoming a sweet game playing unit and if Nielsen and other research bears out more games will be played than video entertainment. The differentiator here is that the Nuvola box as designed first to be an outstanding streaming media player. Open source gaming is almost a free add-on whereas other boxes are for games first (and limited to their platform) and then streaming video was added. We took on the tougher task and are delivering. The others took on the easy requirement and then slapped video on top to let closet gamers say they were buying the unit for their kids or that they were buying it for the OTT content they could view. UltraFlix is 100% focused on being the number one in UHD content delivery which is why we have been so aggressive in accumulating the largest single source library for all types of UHD video content.
