digital media distribution in Asia by offering to carriers, licensed premium
quality content from leading Hollywood and Asia studios as well as music from

companies," asserts Dr. Lu. As one of the providers of licensed Hollywood
content for Digital Media Distribution in China, ViDeOnline sees tremendous
potential in offering compelling licensed content at competitive prices in a
market plagued with piracy. Over the past two years, ViDeOnline has been
working with local authorities in China to address how international quality
content, compliant with China’s regulations for censorship and media licenses

censor approved content for delivery to consumers through carriers and local
IPTV or Digital TV and Internet service providers.
