Re: Gartner study: IPTV Growth of 64% in 2008

(buffering...buffering...) IPTV is such a waste of bandwidth when compared with existing cable solutions. So I'm not surprised they've only got 19 million worldwide to show for it, but how that equals 1.1 percent of worldwide households is beyond me.

IPTV will become a great way for watching what whenever, but it just won't be an effective way to deliver TV to the typical wideband (in more ways than one) channel surfer.

Hm, it depends what you mean by IPTV- U-Verse's system seems to work pretty well. But unicast streams over the unmanaged internet seem less likely.
