Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]

The following table sets forth the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2013:



	Amounts
Balance at December 31, 2012	$	4,712
Goodwill allocated to Headland Media Limited	13,129
Foreign currency translation adjustment	245
Balance at September 30, 2013	$	18,086

During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test as of August 31, 2013, as defined by FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that the impairment test be performed through the application of a two-step process. The first step compares the carrying value of the Company’s reporting units to their estimated fair values as of the test date. If fair value is less than carrying value, a second step is performed to quantify the amount of the impairment, if any. As of August 31, 2013, the Company performed its annual impairment test for goodwill at the reporting unit level and, after conducting the first step, determined that it was not necessary to conduct the second step as it concluded that the fair value of its reporting units substantially exceeded their carrying value. Accordingly, the Company determined no adjustment to goodwill was necessary.

For intangible assets, the Company assesses the carrying value of these assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset, or asset group, to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset, or asset group.

Acquired intangible assets are subject to amortization. The following table summarizes acquired intangible assets at September 30, 2013 and December 30, 2012, respectively:



	Useful Life	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Value
September 30, 2013
Subscriber relationships	10	$	8,600	$	335	$	8,265
Distribution rights	15	5,083		133		4,950
Internally developed software	3	565		74		491
Proprietary content	2	194		39		155
Intellectual property	7	2,372		1,052		1,320
		$	16,814	$	1,633	$	15,181
December 31, 2012
Intellectual property	7	$	2,372	$	688	$	1,684
		$	2,372	$	688	$	1,684
