The San Diego-based company, which has built its business around delivering digital video, aims to raise as much as $104 million when it lists on the Nasdaq next week. It plans to trade under the ticker "DIVX."

Just when my Apple stock is finally increasing, DIVX has to public. I’ve already missed out on buying Google stock when it went public, so I may not want to make that mistake again.

YouTube is also thinking about going public to.

YouTube

-Free
-Easy to use, it just works (Streaming QT I'm looking at you)
-Standardized, all the videos are same size, same controls, same GUI
-Tagging helps to find relevant videos
-And most important of all... embed-able!

That DivX is pretty damn slick. I posted a demo on Stage6 (they're still in Alpha testing), but it's far, far superior to anything on youtube. Full screen, great rez, fast loading.

Now, if only I hadn't spent all my money on video gear...

This stock ends up going up higher that I thought. The starting price was about $16.00 and now its $23.36. If this stock keeps increasing at this pace, it may surpass Apple (AAPL) stock by next year. I thought Google stock went up quick when it went public but this one’s a rocket.
