Broadband IP Switched Broadcast Video Voice Data What is “Triple-Play” INTEGRATED SET OF VOICE, DATA & VIDEOSERVICES OVER A CONVERGED PLATFORM
The Value of “Triple-Play” • Improve ARPU • Differentiate from competition • Strengthen market position • Reduce customer churn • Enhance customer satisfaction • Leverage brand name to: • improve revenue sharing with content providers • “push” additional services (e.g. online games) • attract additional advertising revenue PROFITABLE OPERATORS
Regulatory Issues • Convergence brining new legal challenges to regulators • fostering of competition • unbundling of Local Loop (LLU) • Redefining boundaries between: • telecommunications and audiovisual • private and public • non-commercial and commercial • Distinguish between ‘television broadcasting services’ and ‘information society services’ • Key IPTV regulatory issue is whether it will be regulated as a data or a broadcasting service
Content Acquisition Issues Legal Framework? Release Windows? Contracting terms? Content Protection? Service Packaging? Contracting Rates & Revenue Guaranties? Content Sourcing?
Enabling IPTV / Triple Play Offerings Thus, regulatory authorities need to: • Cooperate with all stakeholders (operators, content providers) to ease access to content • Foster the competitive environment (market liberalization, LLU) to drive the need for differentiated services Need to distinguish the regulation of: • Linear services which include all traditional TV and Radio broadcasting streamed over the Internet • Non-linear audio-visual content services where the viewers decide when a specific program is transmitted
