The Age of Convergence

entertainment medium
• Appliances that further blur the lines
between the TV and Internet
• Hardware alone is no longer enough:
applications and services and their
convergence across platforms will rule


Convergence: Consumers want it

The biggest Issues for IPTV
• Majority still Pay TV replica services
• Defensive business model: churn preventer
rather than ARPU generator
• Not using two way technology capability for
interactivity
• Not maximising network utilisation

IPTV needs to move to the 2.0 stage …
and beyond


The Leap Ahead with IPTV 2.0
A fully converged environment
• goes further than audience interacting with
different applications on the TV screens
• delivers crucial measurable metrics and enables
marketer to interact with target audiences for
enhanced advertising models and accountability
• converges video related services such as VOD,
P2P video, video conferencing, games and
application sharing, video security services etc


Evolution of Interactive IPTV Service


Example1 : South Korea

• Networks, solutions and contents related to the Korean IPTV now an
export driver
– The Korean IPTV consortium and a related consortium in Peru have signed
contract for the “development of human resources using IPTV”

• All three IPTV operators (KT, LG Dacom, SK Telecom) offer distinctive
education programs for young children, from kindergarten to elementary
school levels
– Play content at different speeds for pronounciation exercises
– Interactivity to solve problems, check correct answers and discuss with
teachers through the television screen live.
– Chat with friends while watching TV
– Look up additional information on
actors and performances while watching
programs on a different picture window.

IPTV 3.0 Example: Platform and Content
convergence
Online service and entertainment system that marries the familiarity of
printed catalogues with the information-rich online world

• Comprises a pen-like device which connects to the IPTV
STB for seamless connectivity between printed
catalogues and online information
• The pen reads invisible dot-code printing and triggers
information on the TV screen
• Applications: online shopping, food ordering, Karaoke,
education, VoD selection…


In Summary

and content becomes more entrenched in
peoples’ expectations
