Today I had a pretty interesting meeting with The Fifth Network, a company which I'd only been minimally aware of. TFN's been focused on media services for the past couple of years, but is now poised to launch a pretty comprehensive solution for broadband video delivery.

We didn't get into too much detail or extensive demos, but what I did see looked impressive, especially from a video quality perspective. They shared a preview of a deal being implemented for a big brand advertiser and also for a potential film studio.

I thought all the companies that had planted their flag in the content/ad management and content publishing spaces were now declared, but TFN shows that there are still some stealthy efforts out there, which when released will continue to push further innovation in this space. I'll have more details on TFN's deals just before they go live.
