IPTV is getting more and more attention these days! The news from Reuters shows that also the big players (here Deutsche Telekom owned Club Internet) are starting serious offerings.
Deutsche Telekom’s French Internet arm, Club Internet, will be the first in Europe to sell Microsoft’s software for TV and video on demand over Internet Protocol networks to consumers, the pair said on Friday.
Interesting that Deutsche Telekom is starting this service first in France and then in Germany. So France is the test-market for Germany is the test-market for the UK…?
Right! … and Europe is than a test-market for the US?
AHA – seems like things don’t work out so easily, do they:
“Telekom vertagt Internet Fernsehen”

Maybe Microsoft wants to coordinate their IPTV offering with the Vista release…their IPTV offering is rumoured to be “complex and instable”. What’s new, then?
Thanks, Gunther!
