The Case for Content Identification: Supporting New Business Models and Effectively Managing Key Business AssetsDWA Webcast –
The Case for Content Identification: Supporting New Business Models and Effectively Managing Key Business Assets

While the ease and speed with which digital content circulates across the Internet has provided unprecedented opportunities for both creators and consumers, it also presents a major issue: Once content makes its way to the Web — whether it's a photograph, book, document, song, TV show, or movie — it can be immediately viewed by anyone and subjected to appropriation by well-meaning and unscrupulous users alike. In addition to the loss of control over their content, creators and distributors lack visibility in how and where the content is being accessed and consumed, which is essential for establishing new business models that benefit all stakeholders — content owners, distributors and consumers.
