ROO Feeding Online Video Search Engines via Media RSS




"RSS allows us to offer up-to-date and compelling news and entertainment video in a user controlled and on-demand environment," said Robert Petty, ROO CEO. "We're demonstrating that RSS is already much more than just a medium to distribute text-based content, and the trend of using RSS to deliver video is only going to increase because it is an optimal method to place video content in front of massive audiences."


As an online broadcaster that has catalogued its entire video library using RSS formats, including Media RSS, ROO enables web surfers access to the latest video content including breaking news, celebrity gossip, fashion shows, movie trailers, the latest music videos and sports clips. Media RSS is an extension to the broadly used RSS, or "Really Simple Syndication," format that enables publishers to distribute their multimedia content across the Internet. Media RSS gives consumers a way to keep track of their favorite video or other multimedia content on the web by adding it to their My Yahoo! page.

In addition to My Yahoo!, ROO currently feeds its extensive video database to several video search engines, including Microsoft Windows Media Search (www.windowsmedia.com), AOL's video search engine (www.aol.com/video) and blinkx (www.blinkx.com). RSS technology provides a simple and standardized method for these services to access one of the largest libraries of video content available.


ROO's library of online video is entirely free to the end-user and supported by 15- and 30-second pre-roll advertisements. Due to RSS technology's ability to provide a convenient and precise method for end-users to access video content, ROO is able to utilize the technology to increase the distribution of its video and provide advertisers with an expanded audience base.
