Microsoft To Deliver TV Over Internet Within Year | |
|
||
| Time: 01:15 EST/06:15 GMT | News Source: CRN | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

Microsoft Corp.'s decade-long push into television is notable for false starts, bold promises and failed investments, but the company hopes to finally move into the living room this year with a service delivered over high-speed Internet networks. The success or failure of Microsoft's Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) initiative could determine the fortunes of a number of telephone companies betting billions that the company can help them encroach on cable television operators' home turf. Unlike the video clips uploaded to Web sites like YouTube, which depend on normal consumer Internet connections, IPTV gets priority from phone companies, using the main highways or backbone of the Web to deliver television programs with nearly all the features available from cable or satellite TV. | ||

I was once a happy MS UltimateTV user. Then they pulled the rug out from under us without warning (a month or so after hyping all the neat new features about to come).
They won't get me again. TL |
