Report on Hybrid TV and Over the Top TV Status available through Bharatbook

April 3, 2010 - PRLog -- Hybrid TV and Over the Top TV Status Report

Hybrid TV is the use of a broadcast and IP connection for the delivery of a TV service. Hybrid TV is not new; in 2008 the majority of IPTV STBs (Set Top Box) shipping in Europe had digital terrestrial TV (DTT) tuners in addition to an IP connection. However, for many the shift to hybrid TV has been a quiet revolution. Especially given two of the telco industry's most successful TV deployments, Verizon FiOS (2.9M customers in Q4 2009) and Orange TV (2.1M customers in 2009), are both hybrid TV. The whole of the payTV industry is now taking notice of what this means. ( http://www.bharatbook.com/detail.asp?id=133640&rt=Hybrid-TV-and-Over-the-Top-TV-Status-Report.html )
