I found an interesting IPTV company who has developed a way to stream HD quality with no downloading or buffering, in full screen over 100kbps bandwidth connection (that’s about 1/30th of what other IPTV systems require).
The player they designed has got to be the most elegant I have ever seen.
Go to http://blastiptv.com to see what I think is going to be the future of the IPTV industry.

No prob.

BTW, I love TWiT and Diggnation! But I don’t have the patience to download the 500mb+ video files even with my uber-fast connection at the office! I’m content with listening to the audio version while on the road.

@Teknolohiya,

I’d say it’s not only about producing the content, but also about bringing the content to the viewers. And I think it’s only but 1% of the viewers (the techies like ourselves) who have the time, know-how and patience to download shows on their computers. The rest of the populace prefer to sit it out in front of the boob tube and surf across channels for their favorite shows. They’re the people who’d rather view content on their television sets.

Err…isn’t IPTV about regularly produced content rather than the means to which it’s delivered? I’m 384kbps down, and I get to watch a whole slew of tech shows (Diggnation, Hak.5, TWiT, OpenAlpha, commandN, DigitalLife) without being restricted by my connection. It’s all in the content, the regularity and the availability – given enough patience, even dial-up users can take part in IPTV.

What does PLDT have to do with anything? And why are people getting hung up on PLDT when there’s no content to speak of, only plans to have content delivered? Are people seriously more concerned with the CONCEPT of IPTV than IPTV itself?
