TV-OIP (Television over IP) has a number of issues right out of the gate that aren't going to be easy to overcome.
It would be one thing if Americans didn't already have great cable service, but we do. Sure, we ***** about it a lot, but let's face it, our cable service is pretty amazing...a thousand channels of clean signal, one remote, and DVR interconnectivity. Most of us don't worry about our cable signal breaking up or dropping, and we don't have to read for a keyboard to surf the channels.
The truth is, TV-OIP isn't ready, just not ready for prime-time.
