Via EE Times.

U.S.-based Amaru Group and its subsidiary M2B World Inc. have completed a deal with Japan IP provider United Power Co. Ltd. to distribute major entertainment content through a broadband-serviced, voice-activated set-top box.

According to the companies, the agreement reflects a breakthrough in Japan, where U.S.-based media companies have had difficulty securing such broad-scale distribution partnerships, and signifies the trend toward broadband streaming for global consumers seeking entertainment media.
