Putting the article's promotional tone aside, I don't think this topic is notable, mainly because it's very difficult to establish proper source independence. All of the current sources are strikingly promotional. [1] contains gems like {{tq|An incredibly remarkable feat when you consider Look’s humble beginnings.}} and {{tq|This player ... is playfully referred to as their ‘first child’.}} [2] is a passing mention. [3]: {{tq|If yes, the LOOK DS tool is what you need. It will grace your digital signage displays to keep your audience interested.}} [4]: {{tq|It is an award-winning, easy, and dependable software solution for remote control of digital screen networks of different sizes and functions, such as advertising panels in retail shops or restaurant digital menu boards.}} [5] is passing. [6]... is somewhat better than the previous ones. But it's still just a review, and not a particularly nuanced or insightful one. So I don't even think this passes WP:GNG.

  • Delete I was going to nominate this for deletion myself but the nominator beat me to it. The sources are highly dubious and appear to largely consist of SEO spam and unvetted 'contributor' articles. For instance, [https://thewestnews.com/look-ds-has-released-dynamic-apps-to-play-social-media-and-news-feeds-right-on-your-digital-signage-displays/ this] does not appear to be a legitimate news site and the article is completely nonsensical - it spends one paragraph on the topic and then goes into talking about BBC, Instagram and Facebook Live. [https://timesofmalta.com/articles/view/look-ds-makes-exciting-announcements-at-look-event-autumn-edition.940380 This] has the byline "Brought to you by Look DS", [https://www.galwaydaily.com/business/business-tech/everything-you-need-to-know-about-digital-signage/ this] seems to be a site that allows anyone to submit articles, [https://www.ottawalife.com/article/look-ds-has-announced-a-major-new-release-that-includes-the-windows-player?set_lang=en this] is written by an anonymous "Guest Author", [https://androidpctv.com/look-digital-signage/ this] doesn't appear to be reliable and [https://techround.co.uk/about/ this] seems to be an advertorial site (see their [https://techround.co.uk/about/ about me]: {{tq|We work with startups and businesses of all natures to help them reach the audiences to grow their businesses and further their messaging.}}) Not notable, likely UPE spam.
