IPTV today is much, much more than just video-on-demand. It is more than a pay-TV service from a telephone company. Today the IP-based industry embraces almost every aspect of television, from content capture through editing and archiving, and all with the intent of supplying content to dozens of different delivery systems.

Rapid TV News' latest Round Table, and its panel of experts, examines the challenges and opportunities for this segment of the television and broadcasting industry.
