The economics of the communications service provider industry have shifted dramatically over the past decade.  With traditional voice-based revenues now virtually obsolete, the key to financial performance now lies in developing and harvesting value from rich-media end-user experiences.  In this edition of 1on1 with BizTechReports we explore how rich-media changes the relationship between subscribers and service providers, and discuss ways to manage the tremendous complexity that it creates.  This is an especially tough challenge for organizations seeking to provide an integrated experience across device platforms (laptop, smartphone, tablet, etc.).
