Hi Bill
Somehow I missed your comment.

To answer to your point, users will only manage to have 2 or maximum 3 entertainment devices connected to the TV in the living-room. It is key that IPTV telcos defend their set-top-box position in the living-room, and make it open enough to avoid users plugging an Apple TV (or new inventions to come) to compete with IPTV services, or worse, make their set-top-box “replaceable”.

Hello Mr. Cansado,

We are looking to participate in a joint venture that coincidentally follows your opinions in the first 3 bullet points under “How can IPTV telcos fight back and win?”

The 4th has me buffaloed. There are so many STBs in the market and most are too expensive for us to tackle. Could you or others point to a low cost STB that fulfills your recommendations which I wholeheartedly agree with, by the way.
