	Internet Streaming Media Alliance Releases ISMA 1.0
		ISMA 1.0 is the first implementation specification developed by the ISMA, a group of industry leaders in content management, distribution infrastructure and media streaming working together to promote open standards for developing end-to-end media streaming solutions.
		ISMA 1.0 provides a step-by-step implementation agreement that enables compliant components to be interoperable between different ISMA-supported vendors in the rich media marketplace.
		The broad industry participation in ISMA will allow the content industry to rapidly embrace the concept of "one standard -- one encode", regardless of the receiving platform, and provide the assurance for the consumers that their investment in rich media streaming devices will not be obsolete.

		Currently, there are several disparate formats for delivering rich streaming media, which has made it costly for service providers, vendors and others to take advantage of the market opportunities, said executives with the alliance founders.
		Streaming media is playing an increasingly larger role in the enterprise, especially for delivering e-learning services and company conferences.
		The demand for streaming media in the business world is growing, as was illustrated last month with the partnership between Microsoft and Eloquent and another between Intel and Media 100.

		In addition, streaming media over a modem is blurry due to the use of a high-compression codec.
		Having three formats forces streaming media providers to use different streaming software to produce each type of clip, while end-users are stuck downloading endless versions of increasingly bloated media player software to view the tiny, blurry video.
		At the end of 2000, the streaming media industry was quick to boast of a successful year, pointing to a 65 percent growth in streaming media downloads -- from 21 million in 1999 to 34.7 million in 2000, according to Nielsen/NetRatings.

	Streaming Media -Will it Overtake Television?
		Streaming media is the latest techno beast to be tamed online and if recent stats are any indication it may well surpass television as the media of choice.
		The media stream was delivered at 700 kbps for people with extremely fast Internet connections and at 300, 128, 80 and 56 kbps for people with slower connections.
		Media streaming is an expensive technology to implement and by creating common standards it should make it a more affordable and favorable venture to pursue.
