AUSTRIA: NEW MULTIMEDIA SERVICE BY APA

Article Abstract:

Austria Presse Agentur (APA) has automated its multimedia service that provides text, images, audio, graphics and video features for web sites. With the automated service, which is to be launched in January 2001, the Austrian news agency aims to generate a turnover of Sch 20mn in the first year and reach break-even in the second year. The service, for which 80 staff produce about 300 news elements per day and which does not target private internet surfers, was already used by dozens of clients in the non-automated version. The usage is paid by the number of page impressions.
