DG FastChannel

edit

DG Systems was a pioneer in the use of satellite technology for advertising content distribution. As the dust was still settling after the VHS vs. Beta debate, engineers from DG Systems were quietly developing a revolutionary service that would eventually eliminate tape altogether. Ultimately, DG’s satellite distribution service changed the way advertising campaigns were executed, reduced ad budgets by millions of dollars, and improved the workflow of thousands of broadcast professionals.
