IPTV: Italy’s Fastweb Has the Jump
Today’s WSJ has a great article (subscription required) on the Italian startup Fastweb making strides in the IPTV realm. The article cites on of the largest problems for growth is the cost of infrastructure. It will be interesting to see how the major US players such as AT&T and Verizon market this new technology here.
Moreover, I like how the article illustrates that ‘content is still king.’ Even though different media forms, I think XM and Sirius could learn something from the European pioneers of IPTV.
