At the moment GVT supply the vast majority of subscriber fees to MIRA via their IPTV offering and the recently launched satellite service and it seems they are going to be offering a full on IPTV service in areas that have the infrastructure which should mean more revenue coming MIRA’s way!!
“Brazilian telecommunications operator GVT is planning to launch a full IP pay-TV operation by the end of the year, according to the vice president of marketing and sales, Daniel Neiva, reports Teletime. GVT is already conducting tests for the launch of the service over GPON fibre networks to users' homes. The full IPTV service is being considered only where GVT has a FTTH network with GPON, where the network supports speeds of over 150 Mbps, such as in certain districts of Sao Paulo. Neiva said that this is the natural evolution of the operator's strategy, moving from a hybrid DTH and IPTV offering, to pure satellite and now full IPTV.”
