Last week:
Average number of unique users accessing video per customer: 15
Average number of logins per unique user: 3.9
Maximum unique users accessing video per customer: 464

Okay, so this post has nothing to do with MVaaS really.  This is a pure video application.  Maybe a video that is accessible by a cellphone application.
I was fortunate enough to attend the Democratic National Convention at Denver’s Invesco field tonight, complements of my Chairman and friend, Dan Caruso (neither of us were expressing a [...]
