Adobe Systems Launches Adobe TV, Unveils New Media Player

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Adobe Systems has launched the first version of its new media player, as well as an online TV channel that delivers high-end tutorials in web and graphic design.

Adobe TV launches with more than 200 videos across four channels: Photographers, Designers, Video Professionals and Developers.

The videos star a variety of "Adobe evangelists, leading trainers, subject matter experts and luminaries," teaching classes on the Adobe suite of design programs, including Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash, Illustrator and others.

Adobe's Media Player hits the web with programming available from CBS, MTV Networks, Universal Music Group, PBS, CondéNet and Scripps Networks. Although the player offers no adult content as of now, users can also use it to play downloaded, streamed or locally stored Flash content.

Webmasters can download the new media player from Adobe.com.

Adobe's Media Player joins a host of other proprietary programs designed to deliver high-quality video content online, including Joost, Miro and VeohTV.

Joost soft launched almost a year ago with no adult content offerings. As of today, it still has none.

Miro launched last November as a direct Joost competitor, offering the most porn-friendly opportunities for webmasters and producers. Miro lets users subscribe to any video content that's available over an RSS feed.

"People can subscribe to any feed they want, and there's no way for us to restrict that," said Nicholas Reville, the executive director of Miro's parent company, the nonprofit Participatory Culture Foundation. "We have no interest in restricting it."

VeohTV resembles Joost, but like Miro, it gives users access to most online video content.
