CHARLOTTE, XBiz, 9/1/05 - AEBN’s Xobile unit said Wednesday that it is adding new mobile
mini-movies at the rate of about 150 per week and has now encoded more than 50,000
two-minute mobile features from more than 5,500 adult films.
Xobile CEO Harvey Kaplan told XBiz that the company needs to constantly add to its mobile library due to the number of users who have signed up for the service, which streams and downloads to cellphones. “We have been averaging 6,000 signups a month; last month we had 7,000,” Kaplan said. “We’re the only mobile service with the top talent from the top studios, covering 152 different genres of adult entertainment or virtually every sexual preference and interest imaginable.” The company’s two-minute mobile movies are available in nine different formats that are distributed at speeds of between 124 and 512 kilobits per second. “We originally intended to announce that we had passed the 5,000 movie mark, but we blew by that milestone and pretty soon we’ll be closing in on the 6,000 figure,” Kaplan said. Charlotte, N.C. based AEBN, known as the Adult Entertainment Broadcast Network, launched its mobile division Xobile in April. In June, Vivid Entertainment Group signed an eight-month exclusive licensing deal for Xobile’s Leapscan technology, which allows users of most Symbian OS-based and Windows Mobile camera phones to stream videos such as trailers of videos on the camera-equipped mobile devices by using barcode-scanning software.
