"I WANT MY ITV (???)"

Interactive TV and Digital Cable Services

Interactive TV and digital cable services promise to soon change TV as we have known it, even though some dreams of interactivity remain elusive.

  • What is important here, and what technologies and opportunities are real now or reachable soon?
  • What is ITV? What are the technologies; players; historical performance and projections
  • What will drive the market? --Digital deployments; consumer adoption; advertiser adoption. Will couch potatoes really want to interact?
  • What are the new paradigms for programming as well as the ramifications for existing programming, advertising models, and revenue generation?
  • What is the impact of video on demand, time shifting, virtual channels, and other new interactive services being offered by cable and satellite service providers? Hear about these key issues from leading strategists and industry executives. p>
