14 DAY TRIAL // StreamCast Networks Inc., makers of the popular Morpheus P2P file-sharing software, today announced Peer Response, a platform designed to facilitate compensation for participating content creators and copyright holders.
Peer Response is a flexible distribution platform that provides multiple methods of compensation for authorized digital media files that are returned within a peer-to-peer user's search results. For the first time, content owners can get paid through sale or sponsorship of a single download in an open and decentralized P2P environment, or simply gain exposure by allowing consumers to discover and download their content for free.
"By connecting content creators with millions of interested users at the most powerful moments of the purchase cycle -- when consumers are declaring exactly what they want, Peer Response leverages existing file-searching behavior to convert downloaders into customers," stated StreamCast CEO, Michael Weiss.
Morpheus' Peer Response platform will launch with a full slate of legitimate music, game, and video downloadable titles to try and buy that include: Halo 2, From Russia with Love, Monopoly, Tha Outlawz "Celebrate," Ms. Cherry "It's Whatever," and thousands more. Over one million video, music, game, and software titles will be added in the coming months.
An integrated Morpheus-branded eWallet, which is a payment transaction solution for digital media developed exclusively for Morpheus by Media Global Infrastructure LLC, whose payment processing subsidiary, NewGenPay is a spin off of IBM, will provide seamless transactions for content purchases. Similarly, self-publishers will be provided with automated tools to distribute their content. Additional partners initially include industry leaders Softwrap, Intent Media Works, TryMedia, Weed and Gametrailers.com.
