Research Questions 1. How are we going to get licensing from television companies? Well as a company we decided that it would be best to model after iTunes and how they sell their music, which is, that Apple keeps 28% and the artist and record label gets the rest. So we thought it would be easy just to do the same for online television. We would keep 28% for putting their channel online and then the channel keeps the rest so then we won’t need to pay for licensing and what not to use their programs online. 2. How much does HBO cost on Star hub? HBO costs $12.84 Sing per month for just the major channel of HBO, which was even higher than we had previously estimated. 3. How much does a website cost to start? For the websites we were looking into using, they cost $10.69 USD per year. 4. What kind of computers do we need to run our business? After researching we found a specific type of server that is used by You tube, they are called proxy servers. 5. How much do these computers cost? These servers cost approximately $77.07 USD each. Each server will probably last about five years 6. How many computers do we need? You tube has about one million eight hundred thousand of these servers across the globe. I believe that starting out we should probably get at least 5,000 to begin and then we can work our way up from there as our business expands. 7. How many employees do we need? Google currently has a range from 100-200 employees working in its largest info center in Oregon. We do not know exact numbers of employees because it is so restricted and protected. I think that starting out with about 25 well-trained professionals and two supervisors would work very well.
