IPTV 2006 Update - The Evolution of IP Media

Research and Markets have issued a new whitepaper from IP media experts, Herv Utheza and Colin Dixon, who examine the factors impacting the deployment of IPTV throughout in Asia, Europe, and North America. The detailed report analyzes how the IPTV deployment landscape has shifted in just the 12 months, and offers a glimpse of whats in store through 2010 and beyond. As well, the study examines the service operators that have joined the IPTV fray over the last year and offers a unique long tail segmentation of the market.

Given the recent explosion of web-based video content, this report also includes a special section on Internet TV. It looks at the why, where and how of web-based video delivery and assesses the likely impact on Telco IPTV. Lastly, the study closely examines the business of Internet delivery and explains why the Internet will prove to be a disruptive force in this nascent market.
