It was, indeed, a significant move when Mobile CDN streamed the NBA All-Star game footage live on the cell phones last week. This first streaming live application from Mobile CDN seems to work on any wireless network Edge, Wi-Fi and 3G phones.
Apple has approved the application for the iPhone and before this it hasn’t allowed officially to access streaming apps with iPhones.
What it was that Mobile CDN used for breaking down these barriers from Apple? It is being that Mobile CDN reached streaming App Orb and asked them to repurpose their current technology to provide such a solution as could be high in quality and capacity to access all users of the iPhone as the same time.
The first test seemed to do quite well at Apple’s App store. The App for NBA All-Star Game got number 16 in iTunes apps, and it was a featured application at the home page of iPhone App Store as well as it was the most popular sports application too.
Euan McLeod is founder of Mobile CDN and it has brought a game changing breakthrough for Apple’s iPhone. It could be a powerful tool for many businesses if the company has got approval from Apple for streaming live shows and other sports events. According to Mobile CDN, it has already signed deals with many other broadcast and media companies.
