IPTV News and Information from Verimatrix
Battling Content Piracy & Theft of Service Vol. I Issue 2
By Steve Christian, VP of Marketing at Verimatrix, as featured in Digital Broadcast Middle East.

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is gaining momentum and carries the promises of revolutionising how content is delivered. The most successful IPTV deployments have one thing in common: premium content.

As delivery models move away from the controlled environments of movie theatres, cable networks and DVDs, and towards on-demand, IP-based platforms, the task of keeping premium content safe from piracy becomes increasingly critical. Owners of high quality content will need to be assured that their assets are delivered safely across IP networks.

The very word "Internet" sends shivers down the spines of many studio executives as they look back on the plight of the music industry.
