Mark Cuban on a congressional panel is interesting enough. Cuban and YouTube's Chad Hurley on the same panel should make Thursday's "Future of Video" hearing by the House Subcommittee on Telecom and the Internet as much fun as the Mavericks/Warriors series (couldn't resist).
Here's the full witness list:
Mark Cuban (HDNet), Blake Krikorian (CEO, Sling Media), Chad Hurley (YouTube), Gina Lombardi (President, MediaFLO; Qualcomm), Ben Pyne (Disney and ESPN networks), Tom Rogers (TiVo), and Phil Rosenthal (Writers Guild of America, West and Screen Actors Guild).
There will be plenty of media and bloggers dissecting this panel. And, while there is plenty of drama between the different players asked to testify, it should be remembered that the real lasting impact will be made on the congressional members making the queries as they take one of their first steps in getting their arms around the exploding broadband video market.
With this witness list, one can expect issues like copyright and time/place-shifting to dominate, but it will be important to watch whether questions of content regulation (violence, porn, political speech) get broached.
While the hearing was an open secret for a week or so, the folks at the government affairs firm Capital Solutions were the first to post the witness list as far as I can tell. (Update: Pulver put the list up today, too)
Thanks for the plug Sean...
