In June, Arepa entered into a co-marketing arrangement with Inktomi, which makes the Inktomi Traffic Server network caching platform. Arepa distributes its RAFT protocol module to Traffic Server customers free of charge. Customers need to install PlayNow Player software on their PCs to use the service. In addition to offering the latest and greatest titles, Arepa provides consumers with magazine articles on new software titles and technologies as well as user reviews. Flexible rental programs and subscriptions are packaged like CATV offerings of basic and premium service, with the ability to get special titles on demand.
Customers also can purchase titles through selected e-commerce partners.
