Hulu started the new wave, now Vevo, Next Issue Media, Epix, Canoe and others are following: companies in the same vertical banding together for joint ventures and consortiums. What happens when companies that haven’t been able to crack the code on their own combine for scale, reach and sales power? When does it make sense? And when is it a barrier?
Hear what the top execs of some of these endeavors have to say at paidContent 2010 on Friday, Feb. 19 at TheTimesCenter—and what a leading analyst thinks of the efforts.

» Rich Greenfield, Co-Head, Pali Research
