Internet TV now 'mainstream' in Australia - but what about piracy?

摘要

One quarter of Australians have watched TV over the Internet, says a report by ACMA (Australian Communications and Media Authority). That includes catchup viewing like the ABC's iView, but true iPTV is still not widely used. But the report ignore illegal downloads. Watching TV online in Australia has become a mainstream activity, with 5.2 million Australians looking at in the last six months, according to ACMA's "Online Video Content Services in Australia" report. The report defines Internet TV as the watching of professionally produced online video content (OVC) where the transmission medium is the Internet.
