Dow Jones Description
Wired was founded in January 1990 by two engineers who just wanted to make great MPEG products. In the early days, Wired's business model was that of a contract engineering company, retained by big companies (like IBM, Sony, AT&T, Lockheed Martin) to develop technologies & reference designs. As you might imagine, developing for these heavyweights allowed Wired to amass a considerable war chest of MPEG-related intellectual property. Wired's founders were disappointed that this great technology was moving from the laboratories to the consumers' studios so slowly, so they decided to launch the company's own line of products. In 1993, Wired introduced Mason - the first MPEG decoder available for the Macintosh platform. This led to a string of firsts, including the first Macintosh MPEG-2 decoder, the first Macintosh MPEG-2 encoder, and the first PowerBook DVD playback card. Today the Wired MediaPress is the world's best selling professional realtime MPEG encoder. Our latest product, the MasonIP is getting rave reviews from customers. As always, we continue to offer engineering services to companies looking to integrate world-class MPEG solutions in their products.
