Ben Reed, Senior Product Manager at Windows Media Center joining us at The Pitch

by Jason Preston on March 13, 2009

You’re coming to The Pitch, right?

It’s next Wednesday, March 18th, at Lucid Jazz Club in the U-district, which is right next to the Emigrant (for those of you who like a good pint of Guinness).

I have a relatively late addition to the speaker line up: Ben Reed, Senior Product Manager for Windows Media Center at Microsoft will be joining us to talk about online video and the potential business models for the changing TV marketplace.

I think that newsbrands who ignore video over the next five years will learn to seriously regret it. The broadcast landscape is starting a shift similar to the one that has overtaken print news, and there’s an way in to the formerly-lucrative market that is going to probably disappear before too long.

In any case, Ben is going to tell us what he thinks about it on Wednesday.
