 === Content creators ===
 Content creators are typically authors or aggregators who provide content
 for direct consumption by end users, or who provide raw material to content
 adaptors.
 The content creators need to be aware of the needs of the different devices,
 and create content to suit these devices, such as a range of versions of a
 logo image.
 Generally, the more end-users are capable of accessing the created content,
 the greater the potential revenue that can be created from such content.
