About IPTV - Internet protocol television - refers to the delivery of digital television and other audio and video services over broadband data networks using the same basic protocols that support the internet.

IPTV should not be confused with the web experience of streaming video, which has generally fallen far short of anything we might expect to see on television.

With increasing broadband access speeds, together with improvements in digital video compression, it is now possible to deliver high-quality video services over internet ( China Telecom ADSL recommanded ), through a small decoder box connect a television to internet router.
