9 Metacafe: The Quality Difference Metacafe is not a video sharing site – it is an online video destination Metacafe surfaces and serves only “entertainment-grade” content. Video search “footprint” eliminates duplicates & improves relevancy 100,000 reviewers filter out inappropriate or uninteresting content VideoRank mines collective wisdom of viewer to determine site placement.

13 Benefits to Video Creators & Content Owners Any great short video can skyrocket to the front page based solely on content quality as determined by VideoRank Content creators don't have to market their own videos or rely on being "noticed" by a content editor Content partners can quickly discover the gems in their inventory

14 Online Video Business Model

15 Video Is An Exploding Market Short video is joining film, music and TV programming as a key streaming entertainment format. 24% of all Internet users access videos at least once a week, while 46% watch videos at least once a month (Online Publishers Association) Approximately 80% of videos consumed online are short form videos, as opposed to full-length programming. (AP-AOL Poll) Online video is expected to grow faster than any other form of Internet advertising, including search, reaching $1.5 billion by 2009. (eMarketer) Revenue from mobile video for entertainment purposes could grow to more than $6 billion per year in the US by 2011. (Instat)

16 The Next Big Entertainment Opportunity The market is looking for a steady stream of engaging short video clips that are licensed and ready to distribute on multiple platforms Where will this content stream come from? Traditional media: costly, expertise in long format programming; copyright concerns UGC: hard to control; no quality standard; copyright concerns but highly scalable Only 2 players have the content, traffic & global distribution to deliver “entertainment-grade” UGC video on a regular basis YouTube is focused on studios and major labels Metacafe is focused on best of class UGC And now Metacafe is introducing a compelling new program to motivate creators to submit great content…
