IPTV Generation 2 - More than Cable TV

I’ve been interviewing IPTV companies since 2005 and IPTV has been evolving. IPTV initially started out as a cable TV look-alike. A few hundred channels of popular programming, some on demand movies, and three tiers of programming services. As IPTV systems evolved, the ability to offer an unlimited number of channels has resulted in a new generation of IPTV – Beyond Cable. This generation of IPTV offers many new programming choices, self-selection and provisioning, and amazing navigation services (interactive programming guides). The next generation of IPTV will offer interactive services such as expandable ads, TV widgets, and smart TV accessories.
