Re: IPTV

said by TKJunkMail See Profile :

Skype has a very bad rep with media corporations and with access providers and very, very few will do deals with them like they have with Microsoft or Google or Apple. I doubt Skype will go very far in this venture. The only videos they will be able to deliver will be user created content.
You mean companies that want no competition? That would be a classic case of the DRM-pushers and walled-garden mental defectives substituting wishful thinking for good business judgment.

If Skype can deliver, why not deal with them?

My guess is that they would have to make serious amends that go beyond the legal settlement they made. Maybe they'll need to first be purchased by a media giant. Of course, then it would really all be down the toilet.
