Excellent Overview Of Groundbreaking Technology

I just moved into the IPTV Product Management group at a major telecom carrier, and I needed just what this book offers: a crash course in IPTV. What the technology is about; how it will change the TV concept as we know it; how it will change advertising paradigms; which operators are doing what; basic network architecture; digital rights management (i.e. copyright securitiy). This book HAD IT ALL. The writing was very clear and uncomplicated. The chapters (and the book) are organized, and they build on each other. The book reviews all key concepts related to IPTV, and is a "must have" for anyone who wants to know how this technology works, or someone who's just begun working on the technology such as myself.
