This blog contains information on the industry of Digital Media Production. It identifies many trends, some of which are now established, and others which are just beginning. We can see the start of "Digital Content" happening. Many new forms of content are starting to appear-the so called "User Generated" content.

The purpose of this blog is to record and present trends in digital media production. Ideally, we would see that the market for Digital and/or reusable content was emerging, and that no-one had managed to satisfy this niche. However the findings here will be presented in as fair and neutral way for the reader to determine his or her own conclusions. Digital media technology is still developing rapidly, with no potential end in sight.

DIRECT FROM HITSVILLE, USA! DELUXE 6-DVD EDITION OF MOTOWN 25


Celebrating the first quarter century of the little company that founder Berry Gordy Jr. turned into Hitsville, U.S.A., his history-making success story deserved a history-making concert—MOTOWN 25: YESTERDAY, TODAY, FOREVER! It debuted on NBC on May 16, 1983, and the morning after became an immediate water-cooler sensation. The highlight that caused the most talk was Michael Jackson’s world premiere of his moonwalk (aka “six seconds that changed the world”) but MOTOWN 25 had an abundance of other buzz-worthy moments, too—reunions by the Miracles, the Supremes and the Jackson 5; the first battle of the bands between Four Tops and The Temptations; and the hottest comedian in the world at the time, Richard Pryor, as host. Motown 25 was not simply a 2-hour TV special...it was a flashpoint cultural event!

The show deservedly won an Emmy Award, but has been unseen for over 20 years, until today. Available now in an expanded 6-DVD deluxe version, it features 5.1 Surround Sound that reveals the music to its fullest potential. Major Motown artists perform their hits at this once-in-a-lifetime concert:

  • The Tears of a Clown Smokey Robinson & the Miracles
  • Uptight (Everything’s Alright) Stevie Wonder
  • Baby I Need Your Loving Four Tops
  • What’s Going On Marvin Gaye
  • My Girl The Temptations
