Until recently, your television was your only option for watching high-quality video content. Now, thanks to the Internet, that premium content can be enjoyed on a plethora of connected devices including personal computers, tablets, and smartphones. The industry movement known as TV Everywhere is making this experience even better. TV Everywhere allows you to use all of these devices to access the same content you already subscribe to as a pay TV customer — in most cases for no additional fee.
Adobe® Pass takes TV Everywhere from concept to reality by seamlessly verifying a user's entitlement to content in a manner that is both simple and secure. This means a quick time to market for content owners and pay TV providers, a secure environment to prevent fraud, and a great customer experience, with more TV content available to more people across more platforms than ever before.
WHO IS ADOBE PASS FOR?
- Programmers and content owners who want to easily integrate with top pay TV providers, while reaching the widest audience for optimal revenue
- Pay TV distributors who seek painless connectivity with multiple programmers and higher customer satisfaction by facilitating access to premium content online
- Pay TV customers who want easy access to content they already subscribe to, wherever they are, at no additional fee
