Internet TV, also known as IPTV, delivers video and audio content over an Internet connection. It can be viewed on computers, televisions through set-top boxes, and mobile devices. While similar to traditional TV delivery methods, Internet TV transmits information as data packets over the Internet rather than through broadcast radio waves or cable wires. It provides more content variety than cable TV and allows viewing on any Internet-connected device. IPTV is beginning to compete with traditional TV delivery by using existing broadband infrastructure to deliver television signals.
