Harris Interactive's IPTV Survey
Harris Interactive's released an IPTV Survey last week.
Highlights:
"Many adults expressed a great deal of interest in the interactive features IPTV has to offer, the most popular of which include:
When consumers are able to watch their favorite shows at a time of their own choosing, "prime time" may need redefining, network program schedules may have little meaning, and TV ad rates will have to be recalculated. If and when IPTV becomes a mainstream reality, it could be the best of times for consumers and IPTV providers and challenging times for the networks, as well as cable and satellite providers."
