Yes Television plc
 PROFILE
When a mystery writer sits down to pen a whodunit about the death of the video store, Yes Television will be a prime suspect. The company offers video-on-demand through broadband cable networks and through phone lines using DSL (digital subscriber line) technology. Viewers can choose among movies, selected TV programming, and music; subscribers can stop the action, rewind, or fast-forward; and the service allows Internet access via TV. Yes operates in Australia, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and the UK through partnerships with local network operators. Founded in 1995 by CEO Thomas Kressner, the company is owned by directors, employees, and financial investors.
