The Content Protection Retreat Absolutely BLEW Me Away!

I was very hesitant to go. I thought it was going to be like most industry events, a lot of fluff and no substance. That said I can't tell you how happy I am that I decided to go. Without a doubt the most educational and most important event I've ever attended.

As someone who spends a lot of money on content I was embarrassed at how little I knew and how little I was doing to protect my content. The main reason I did so little was because I didn't realize the options and tools that are available to content owners.

The only sad part about the Content Retreat was the demographics. I think 90% of the attendees were gay content owners. It's a shame the straight side isn't doing more.

Thanks again to Allison and the Pink Visual crew for putting this together, inviting me and encouraging me to go. I highly recommend all content owners to find a way to attend a future retreat. It's not about just one company doing something, if each of us start doing something to protect our content we can start making a difference for everyone.
