Internet TV
In recent years, with the popularity and increasing availability of broadband internet access in households, it is often seen that traditional services that were delivered through analog mediums are now being concurrently delivered via Internet Protocol or IP. Nowadays, television programs moreover even full fledged television channels are broadcasted or better known as ‘webcasted’ over Internet Protocol instead of the conventional radio waves. Based on the mass hype it has created Internet TV is considered to be the plausible future of how we view television.
Internet TV puts its viewers in control. At home or on the go, all you’ll need to view Internet TV is a fast and reliable internet connection. Now stay in sync with up-to-the-minute news, sitcoms and your favourite TV shows that you usually watch on regular cable or satellite TV; no matter wherever you are. Besides being an extensively beneficial medium of entertainment and news, Internet TV serves as an advantage to broadcaster’s who other than depending solely on advertising revenues can now charge subscription fee’s from the many viewers of their programs. Broadcasters can now reach out to a larger audience with a greater prospect for advertising revenues without having to worry about costs, as the internet connection required to view their channel/channels is paid for the subscriber.
Never miss a show again! Internet Television providers usually operate an on-demand content feature for subscribers. Internet TV provides a number of other neat and revolutionary features. You can bookmark your favourite shows, set reminders, rate content. With the help of secured encryption, border what you want your children to watch, and limit access to certain channels or specific internet TV shows.
However, there are a number of disadvantages of streaming Internet television. Those who wish to view television over the web using Internet Protocol (IP) are required to have a moderately fast broadband internet connection, encompassing speeds of at least 256kbps. Earlier, in the initial years of Internet based television when the concept was still yet to ripen, required speeds to view internet television were relatively higher , the lowest being 512kbps. Enhanced CODEC formats and efficient compression technology now makes it possible stream media over the internet and view internet TV with lower connection speeds. Conversely, Internet TV also requires a computer to have compatible decoding software installed or an internet TV tuner with an embedded decoder. However Internet TV tuners are usually a better deal when you are planning to use your television screen as the display.
Picture resolution has also been a very controversial issue ever since the release of Internet TV. It’s still going to be some time before it can rout the resolution quality of radio broadcast technology and is still inferior. Higher resolution adds up to more storage space meaning more bandwidth. Internet TV is still does not perform its optimum best with larger screens, as bigger the image, the finer the image resolution needs to be.
Internet TV is currently available in two modes, free and subscription based; very similar to normal free-air TV viewing or Cable TV. In subscription basis, a fixed fee is charged for a set of channels, and the viewer is liable to pay extra to view premium channels or pay-per-view programs.
