Video startup Ooyala appoints Agile Software’s Jay Fulcher as CEO
Ooyala has a great system, but seem very reluctant to give any indication of costs involved on their web site. No doubt they would argue it 'all depends', which is not realistic for most 'indies' starting out. They should give sample figures - why is that so difficult to do? This discourages small independent start-ups, who just go elsewhere, and maybe that is what Ooyala wants. They seem only interested and geared towards the 'big' players more so, than indies, hence the success of Vimeo and the like for small producers. Don't get me wrong, Ooyala has a great product and future, but is not exactly helpful to the 'small guy'.
