, saving money on bandwidth, or... All 3? I have to say that this is the most impressed I have been with inroads for pushing our industry in the right direction. So impressed that we are switching over all our video content to CaveCreek Cdn.
So here are some of the advantages.
1. Your customer doesnt have to download the full file to scrub forward or back in the video. What does that mean to a program? Lots of costs saved on bandwidth. I think that alone is an awesome advantage.
2. Speed to your customer is amazing. They are served your content from a location that is closest to them. Another huge advantage. A customer with cock in hand doesnt want to wait for buffering, they want to wank it. A happy customer is a customer that will rebill.
3. Security. Those of us with exclusive content dont want it to be given away for free obviously. If a customer loves the content and can't find it anywhere else he is more likely to pop those credit card numbers in.
I know this sounds kind of salesy but rest assured I am not getting paid for this. That is a testament to how much I believe in this service.
There is a free 15 day trial so its not going to cost you a dime to find out on your own.
