Life sure would be simpler if there was 1 breakout winner... after years of Tivo doing my thinking it's hard to remember which shows are hulu or netflix or network sites or... sigh. I know it's the content providers all wanting their cut and afraid of change but I can still whine can't i? :)

Great list, Liz!

A company I hope you'll also eyeball for future lists like this is Retrofit Films, digital production company, directors of the recent Sprint/NBC Heroes "tagged media" integrated web series campaign who also produced and directed the teaser web series for The CW's Vampire Diaries and the animated web series for the The CW’s Smallville entitled Kara & The Chronicles of Krypton, among many others.

We've worked pretty closely with the major networks and studios to date, although we wouldn't say that's our only niche.

Thanks!

@Scott, Robert, Len and Whit -- Thanks for the suggestions, we definitely considered all of those. I'd say they are each a little earlier in the process than competitors we chose for the list. No doubt they are promising companies, but perhaps next year they will get their due.

I also wanted to comment on Clicker, they're not making content, but they're making content a whole lot easier to find.

I'd also include Kaltura. They appear to be the leading open source video management platform, at least in the U.S., and they're getting a lot of design wins. They integrate well with Drupal and WordPress, and the price for the software starts at zero.

What about Tubemogul? They have been killing it lately with in-stream analytics.
