burst.com is the pioneer of Faster-Than-Real-Time™ video and audio delivery over networks. The Faster-Than-Real-Time™ process delivers video in large advance bursts, saving it in a configurable local buffer, isolating the viewing experience from network noise and freeing up bandwidth to serve more users. burst.com has a comprehensive intellectual property portfolio including 9 active U.S. patents and many international patents covering bursting, video delivery scheduling, rapid casting, multi-casting, video-on-demand, a range of set-top box applications, as well as many others.

The portfolio also includes numerous other patents pending in the US and abroad. burst.com began building its patent portfolio in 1987, in anticipation of the convergence of several key industry trends: the increase and widespread availability of bandwidth, low-cost high-capacity storage, and the standardization of video compression technologies.
