Your reporting is as we are delivering unless there are changes you want us to make. The spreadsheet is for the project described on page 17 I'm hoping that we can have some data for you by Thursday, but you won't have a more comprehensive report till next week. Theres a lot of stuff to crawl on MySpace and I don't think we can cover it all in a week. Mark BTW: We have tested the Audible Magic technology for video clips. We have not found it to be very effective in video content recognition. The other point is that they will have to fingerprint each episode and count each episode as part of their 1000 unit filtering deal. MTVN could easily go through 1000 assets on their own.

I can't say I understand everything on this spread sheet but we want the enforcement analysis not the more expensive and inclusive analysis. Is that what this is for? It's the one at $20,000 per month at page 18 of your report. And on the MySpace front, do you know when we'll be getting the initial report? I'm leaving early on thursday and will be out on friday.

So Thave authorization to add the extra programs to the budget. Does this mean we aren't getting a report on my space before the end of the week? Since I had authorized that over a week ago I was hoping to get that report earlier. As for what the reports should look like let's have them follow your standard format at least initially - which I assume has the same info we are getting on youtube.

So, of the 42+ CUITent shows we are tracking for Viacom, can you tell me which 25 programs you want us to put in the list? Also, please send along any information that you feel would help direct the kind of reports you are looking for, what kind of questions do you want answered? Statistics that you need us to gather. Etc. We are just coming out of an upgrade to our system, so we can get this in place and up and running by EOB tomOITOW and deliver a preliminary report by the end of the week. with weekly reporting to begin next week.

The two basic types of technologies are Audio Fingerprinting and Video Fingerprinting. We continuously work with the different vendors in this space to identify new technologies for our customers and help the content detection companies improve their products. Audio Fingerprinting technologies have been available for several years and have a reasonable success rate when the comparison content is a direct rip from the source media. The success rate is significantly higher when comparing music versus audio from television or movie content. Utilizing this technology on non music content ex: television or movies has not produced an acceptable level of results. The video technologies we have tested have serious scalability issues, and have a low success rate when trying to identify smaller segments « 15 minute clips). Another factor that reduces the success rate of the technologies is when the comparison video is lower quality (low frame rate, camcorder copy, reduced image resolution). The systems we have evaluated slow down significantly as the number of source fingerprints increase. We do not see this to be a viable option until a breakthrough in technology or major increase in computing power is achieved.
