New Reporting Rules Help Streaming Companies
from the side-effects dept
Due to new rules from the SEC companies need to be more open with their reporting of information to investors. The idea is that information has to be available to everyone, and not just the big institutional players. This has been in effect for a little while now, and many companies have been moving towards this over the past few months anyway. Now, here's a story that points out one side-effect of this rule: companies that provide web streaming services are suddenly in demand as companies want to use web streaming to report any information to the public.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
