Great article.
I've been wondering for a long time, why Swisscom would rather go with MS than with an open-source based solution. There's plenty of great open-source projects in the video-streaming and media-center sector. The cost to hire a few capable developers to create a consumer-friendly package from these OSS would probably be a lot less, than the licences for Microsoft software alone...
Ah, who cares about money at Swisscom anyway...

Zitat von Andre Oppermann oppermann@networx.ch:
Very interesting article about Micro$soft's half-baked IPTV solution.

Explains in clear technical words why Swisscom's attempt at IPTV is broken and delayed yet another year, if it will ever fly.
