Are there any Multicast VLANs left on LONAP, LINX etc. where interested parties could pick up streams to avoid the burden of Satellite reception? I suppose there are a number of local / regional / special interest channels which could be interested in cost effective distribution. Of course DRM and Geo-Location restriction stuff matters but every IP TV provider has to care for it themselves. With a joint effort - what is actually the idea of an Exchange - distribution cost likely could be lowered. Such as "here are TV channels X, Y, Z with the adress 239.x.y.z - feel free to pick it up, on a best effort basis". -- Fredy Kuenzler Init7 (Switzerland) Ltd.
