Web + TV = WebTV; IP + TV = IPTV

TV meets web or Web meets TV : Combines the TV with the freedom and power of the Internet.



Some says it is stupid and dumb idea.
Why not just plugs the laptop with LCD TV via an HDMI cable, then stream any web content ?. Or is it really difference by Video Search?

But Sony, Logitech and Intel support this idea.

What is the difference between Web TV and IPTV?

Web TV deliver originally online via broadband and mobile networks. Television programming produced for original distribution through the internet.

Internet Protocol television (IPTV) is a system through which internet television services are delivered using the architecture and networking methods of the IP Suite over a packet-switched network infrastructure, e.g., the Internet and broadband Internet access networks, instead of being delivered through traditional radio frequency broadcast, satellitesignal, and cable television (CATV) formats.



IPTV services may be classified into three main groups: live television, time-shifted programming, and video on demand. It is distinguished from general Internet-based or web-based multimedia services by its on-going standardization process and preferential deployment scenarios in subscriber-based telecommunications networks with high-speed access channels into end-user premises via set-top boxes or other customer-premises equipment.
