Difficult to predict the success of IPTV-IPTV, digital TV - HC Network Appliance Industry

Degree in radio and television systems can not be issued a license of resources, the anxiety in the development of IPTV operators altogether road reinvent the wheel, use the Internet to bypass the TV broadcasting system, this indicates that IPTV will soon usher in the rapid mushrooming developing

After frenzied speculation after a while, IPTV is not open in all cases the policy stalled, just as in the water industry to a time when IPTV, China Telecom and Sichuan Changhong Union, launched the Internet TV news, but also a surprise to the industry.

2005 year end, "China Telecom?? Sichuan Changhong TV online cum-launching ceremony of a thousand marketing shop," in Beijing, Shanghai, Xi'an, held three. Although the two sides fought under the banner of "joint marketing television Internet access and other broadband Internet services," but any discerning person can see, this is the implementation of China Telecom, IPTV (Internet TV) strategy of a move.

The two sides early in the Shanghai, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shaanxi provinces and 5 to start the series on home appliances sales channels online TV joint promotional activities. Changhong to build in these areas 1,000 sales outlets, to promote the TV Internet access and other broadband services, while China Telecom IPTV pilot project is just one of these five provinces.

This time, China Telecom, bypassing the use of the Internet TV IPTV license barriers, it appears no longer to IPTV operators can not stop the pace forward!

Around the IPTV license China Telecom, in cooperation with Changhong TV Internet access, the reasons behind the malaise is the fixed-line business, China Telecom eager to find new business to offset the decline in fixed interest, and in the delay in the case of IPTV license , China Telecom can only "Quxianjiuguo."

China Telecom, the idea of this initiative is that the growth rate in the traditional fixed-line subscribers and revenue decline year by year, the broadband business 30% to 40% of the annual growth rate of fixed network operators have become the main source of growth. However, the current pace of development, if not the development of IPTV and other new business, once the home PC broadband users saturation, its fixed income also followed the steps.

But this idea inevitably be broadcast on IPTV restrictions. IPTV license has been issued the right to control the hands of the SARFT, China Telecom, China Netcom and other telecom operators, IPTV and broadcasting major push for the implementation of interactive digital television system there is competition, SARFT has issued only one IPTV content licenses to Shanghai Media.

The consequences of this is that uncertainty as IPTV, involves too many sensitivities, Shanghai Telecom and the Shanghai cooperation in the development of IPTV in the beginning, has had to postpone the press conference 3. However, in telecommunications and Changhong view, the TV as a direct Internet terminal, apparently to avoid the IPTV content licensing restrictions.

"IPTV is mainly realized in broadband to watch TV programs, radio and television issued a license required resources. Using a TV with broadband Internet access directly to the content but without any license, is free to browse Internet content. From this perspective, TV Internet the contents of the richness is much greater than IPTV, IPTV is just a part of Internet TV. "Changhong Ren Fei, director of technology center project, said.

Ren Fei also revealed that while from the upgrade costs, support for broadband Internet users to buy a TV, the cost is higher than in the traditional TV IPTV set-top box to install, but 60 per month compared to IPTV to 80 dollars monthly fee, only pay TV Internet network fee, the use of much lower cost.

Addition, Changhong, China Telecom launched TV Internet access and other broadband Internet services, and rewarding. This will be more than 70 million users of telecom user base to expand to nearly 400 million TV users.

"Changhong has more than 8000 million TV subscribers, there are more than 20,000 sales outlets, it is for China Telecom, has considerable appeal." Deputy general manager of China Telecom Group, Sun Kangmin publicly, and Changhong Cooperative Extension use of TV online, may make China Telecom to home television users in China 400 million transformation of its broadband potential user groups.
