WB Network Uses Pathfire to Deliver Syndicated Programming over IP

Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution says it teamed with Pathfire to successfully initiate the first -ever digital IP store-and-forward delivery of "for-air" syndicated programming in the U.S. and Canada.

Using Pathfire's Digital Media Gateway technology, WB is transmitting "The Drew Carey Show," "Street Smarts" and Elimi-DATE" episodes and will begin transmitting "Friends," "Will & Grace," "ER," and "Suddenly Susan" over the next few weeks.
