"We are delighted to offer QuickTime 7 to our customers," said James Kinsella, Interoute's Executive Chairman. "The overall quality of the new H.264/AVC Video in QuickTime 7 is tremendous and made this a very easy choice. We see a huge opportunity with QuickTime 7 providing the foundation for us to deliver standards-based MPEG-4 and 3G content to our customers."
"With over a billion copies of QuickTime downloaded it's clear that high quality, standards-based streaming is what companies want to offer their customers around the world," said Frank Casanova, Apple's senior director, Mac OS X Audio & Video. "We're thrilled Interoute will utilize the superb H.264-enabled video capabilities of QuickTime 7 and the scalability of QuickTime Streaming Server to change the way users experience video on their computers and mobile phones."
This month sees Interoute launch the latest version of their Media Manager platform.

Interoute is riding the wave of international expansion of U.S. based carriers, ISPs, resellers and enterprises as they expand into new markets, especially Europe, Eastern Europe and beyond.
