"There could be cracks in Microsoft's IPTV plans. Problems at Switzerland's Swisscom,
the first carrier to test Microsoft's service with actual customers, have stirred
speculation that other carriers may face similar technical problems getting
Microsoft's IPTV solution to work.
Swisscom said recently it will delay the full deployment of its IPTV service until
after it has worked out some "technical" issues, according to several news reports."

"You can not feed a normal tv show at 78 k a second and expect it to be great. It
artifacts , looks like compressed crap and has a tendency to create drop shadows. at
1.5 mbit it works fine for a small resolution. Even hdtv at 16 mbit like in the tests
does not look good."
"For a long time, sticking with cable or satellite access for TV will be the way to
go. TV over DSL is a dog and will be until they can deliver many multiple channels."
"Agreed, I fail to understand why the telcos insist on trying to reinvent cable TV.
Why don't they instead concentrate on their core business, building and improving
their infrastructure, deploying fiber, increasing speed. That is what people want.
They already have TV."
