Good Morning Steve,
Yes - I believe this as well. A bit of back story here.
Delon Dotson was the CTO of MP3.com , while there
developed MYMP3.com which later became known as
Napster. He met with all the top record exec's at the time
in a futile attempt to get them to understand the future.
Simply put - folks would get their music by downloading.
He was laughed out of all of their offices.
When Michael Robertson , then CEO of MP3.com and Hothead - insisted they go
ahead and launch the first P2P site called MYMP3.com . Delon , a Christian
and former attorney took a firm stand and said they simply could not just do
this - it was wrong and it would be Piracy. Delon said if you do this - I'm
selling my shares in MP3.com and I'm outta here - that's precisely what
happened.
When I met Delon , He told me of his history and his Desire to Right the
wrong so to speak.
Delon had an idea for a security codec and an new approach a file format
that would be a fraction
of the size of an MP3 file and have way better Audio quality . That's when I
introduced him to Elliot
and the now known META Group consisting of all the top dogs from the Grammy
Producer and
Engineering wing. The Concept was to provide a secure way to sell "
Intellectual Property " via the web.
Along the way , the security codec portion eclipsed the actual value of the
Audio Codec when it became
clear to all involved that this had solved the identity theft problem. Delon
was on the team that built the SSL
encryption presently used by all online transactions etc... , the new
security codec is a Quantum leap from that.
I think this is going to be a very interesting year :)
