VitalStream, Inc. (www.vitalstream.com), a streaming media solutions and global content delivery provider, and Sorenson Media, the leader in video compression technology, today announced that Sorenson Squeeze® 4.1 encoding software will be integrated into VitalStream's Streaming Service for Flash.

VitalStream's partnership with Sorenson Media leverages VitalStream's reliable, worldwide CDN built for streaming and Sorenson Squeeze's encoding technology, to give customers the capability to quickly and easily publish their digital video files to VitalStream's network, improving traditional media workflow. VitalStream's service provides customers with an efficient option for storing and delivering their digital media of any size.

"Businesses seeking to publish their digital content online have been forced to use two independent sources until now," said Jack Waterman, CEO of VitalStream.

Sorenson Squeeze 4.1 is an entire product line of applications specializing in compressing digital video for archiving and sharing video over the Internet, and on CD and DVD. As part of the authoring and publication process, customers import edited, uncompressed video from popular video editing tools, select a preset for an intended audience and then click the 'Squeeze It' button.

"Sorenson Media has long focused on simplifying the workflow for digital content creation. Joining the award-winning workflow of Squeeze with VitalStream's leading CDN services was a natural fit for both companies," said Matt Cupal, president and COO of Sorenson Media.

Sorenson Media is the global leader in video compression technology. The company's innovative encoding applications and award-winning video delivery solutions enable users to quickly and affordably deliver quality digital video files over the Internet.
