Marc Andreessen launches new start-up, Open Media Network

ZDNet:

"Netscape pioneers Mike Homer and Marc Andreessen are back on the start-up scene, launching a TiVo-like online network for distributing and viewing public TV, radio and grassroots media.

The free service, called the Open Media Network, is aimed initially at letting traditional public broadcasters and independent filmmakers distribute their work on the Net. But it will also allow ordinary computer users to publish their files."

OMN joins Google Upload, Ourmedia and Brightcove in the media hosting and distribution game.
