StreamSpace - Incorporates Cutting Edge Technologies Like Decentralized Storage Systems and Blockchains

What is Stream Space?

Stream Space incorporates cutting edge technologies like decentralized storage systems and blockchains, which make it the most progressive streaming marketplace in the world. Filmmakers set a price for their work and are paid immediately by consumers, disrupting the traditional industry model.

Challenge

The movie industry, like other subsets of the entertainment industry, is dominated by a handful of distribution leaders that retain the lion’s share of profits generated in the industry.

There is a strong Pareto effect: most of the industry’s annual revenues and profits derive from a small number of blockbuster films, with large budgets for promotion, frequently 100–200% of the total cost to create the film.

Solution

StreamSpace intends to launch an innovative platform and community that will link creative, independent filmmakers with audiences that seek out quality, edgier film experiences.

There are nine key components to the StreamSpace platform:

• Secure storage method of the video content, based in part on Protocol Labs’ IPFS. StreamSpace holds a provisional patent on its method for secure storage.
• Blockchain transaction ledger for enhanced transparency and security. 
• Front-end decoder and embedded HTML5 player optimized for video streaming, initially on PCs, followed by the most popular consumer video consumption clients: Apple iPhone, Android smartphones, and SVOD portals connected to HDTVs (including Google Chromecast, Roku, Microsoft Xbox, Apple TV, Amazon Fire, etc.).
• Content recommendation engine that helps consumers discover new content that fits their tastes, based on viewing habits and reviews / ratings. Our goal is to lift the restrictions which currently inhibit discoverability by consumers.
• Secure digital wallet so consumers and filmmakers can manage their accounts and stored assets with confidence. A unique digital wallet format will allow the account value to be held in StreamShare tokens (SSH) and will support transferring to fiat or other digital currencies.

Roadmap

The StreamSpace solution in its first iteration will feature basic functionality of the first eight technical components noted above. The ninth element of the solution, ICO / Token crowdfund campaign support, will be offered on an as-needed basis, based on the level of interest from filmmaker customers along with availability of StreamSpace technical support resources. Subsequent iterations of the StreamSpace solution may continue to expand and refine the functionality for both filmmakers and for consumer film aficionados.
