It's the broadband, stupid


Author: Carol Wilson

[Commentary] The growing popularity of Internet video is seen by some as a threat to paid TV services and by others as just one part of the services mix. It may be both. The demand for Internet video is actually a good thing for service providers offering high-quality broadband services. What looms ahead for telecom service providers is an opportunity to earn a permanent place in the entertainment business, provided they don't frustrate their consumer audience in the process. The industry needs to continue to focus on getting the broadband part of its business right, and that will continue to mean network investment, even in tough times.
