This was something my brother felt and people in India too feel something like this – ready to accept new technology in India but with some doubts. Doesn't matter I think every new invention goes through phase of criticism and doubts first and in a way its good. A major issue I felt IPTV in India is facing is awareness about it. 98% people are not even aware about IPTV in India ( says just4kix - an Internet user). A very true statement and I really would like to see IPTV industry promotion in India. Infrastructure is my brother doubted on and many other Indians feel the same. But by introducing IPTV in India, India is actually trying to come up from these myths that we have and successful implementation of IPTV proves that Indian infrastructure is not that weak. Some people feel third party involvement in IPTV industry is an issue but if its functioning well and the roles of all parties are well defined and published then that is not a problem. Who knows tomorrow we might have more options of third parties and direct parties too.
People in India are very optimistic, ready to accept challenges, willing to experiment and always welcome new technologies, so is the case with IPTV. Indian are taking initiatives of using IPTV at their home and existing users are loving its features of Time Shift, Video on Demand (VOD), interactive applications, classifieds and so on. Not only the features even picture quality of IPTV is appreciated by its users. Time shift is the TRP of IPTV, IPTV saves all the programmes on your TV 24x7 automatically. VOD too is user favorite, of course with DVD-like features that too latest list of movies are heart winning (iControl is showing Bolt, Kambakhat Ishq on its IPTV -Tweeted on Twitter). No manual efforts for Time shift are needed, working Indians need this only. Working people can now watch what they want whenever they want and that is the reason IPTV is becoming their favorite.
