A recent survey of 6,000 consumers in the US, UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy found that 46% do not understand the term IPTV. So to help clear up the confusion and help you join the next IPTV train, here is a list of eight things you need to know about IPTV:
1. IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television, which means that you will be able to connect a box to your broadband Internet connection and receive television channels on your regular television.
2. You will have to subscribe to helix iptv services at an additional cost or through a service package like Triple Play that most cable companies now offer.
3. IPTV will offer even more channels and you can choose the channels you want to receive on your cable box in a personalized way.
4. Your phone or cable company will offer IPTV and will most likely offer additional features or services such as VOIP (Voice over IP) phone service and a DVR (Digital Video Recorder).
5. IPTV will offer you the ability to use your cell phone to record your favorite shows. You can call or text his mailbox and have his record Desperate Housewives while he is shopping and can't get home on time. It will be the ultimate in time-changing devices.#
6. IPTV allows two-way communication between the program and the user. Let's say you are watching Rachel Ray, host of the Food Channel, live. You can use your remote or keyboard to write her a fan letter or cooking tip that she can read live.
7. IPTV can help bring PC-centric features to your TV. You could be watching BET's 106 and Park and get an instant message from your house girl or see who's calling you with on-screen caller ID.
8. IPTV is not video on the web. Video on the Internet can be choppy, slow, grainy, and has to be re-buffered a lot. IPTV will be as good as television, and in some cases it will be of HD quality.
