In the<br>US IPTV and Cable TV are more widespread than free to air TV. Congress<br>recently asked why FCC continues to manage the frequency spectrum. It<br>will not surprise if the next big TV station is Safaricom TV, Google TV<br>etc. Much of the digital signals will be carried via
communications<br>networks. As voice becomes competitive, the meat will lie in content and<br>its channels of distribution. Already if you have a webcam, we could<br>stream our discussions to some IPTV (No license required from CCK).<br><br><br>Ndemo.<br><br><br><br>> Hi,<br>><br>> Now that the country has gone digital broadcast and there are additional<br>> free frequencies its time we considered a dedicated technology channel.<br>><br>> In the interim we can also take advantage of the operationalised Media<br>> Bill that requires that all content on the airwaves must contain 60% local<br>> content which means that the media houses will soon be shopping for<br>> locally produced programming.<br>><br>> Therefore if we produced a local show covering ICT issues we should be<br>> able to have a mouth piece for the industry. In addition sessions like<br>> the one on the ICTPark by Dr. Ndemo could have
been easily aired live and<br>> therefore reach all without the need for them to travel.<br>><br>> Lets think about this.<br>><br>> Regards<br>><br>> Robert Yawe<br>><br>> KAY System Technologies Ltd<br>><br>> Phoenix House, 6th Floor<br>><br>> P O Box 55806 Nairobi, 00200<br>><br>> Kenya<br>><br>><br>><br>> Tel: +254722511225, +254202010696<br>><br>><br>><br>> ----------------------------------------------<br>> This message has been scanned for viruses and<br>> dangerous content by Jambo MailScanner, and is<br>> believed to be clean.<br>> ---------------------------------------------<br>> "easy access to the world"<br>><br>> _______________________________________________<br>> kictanet mailing list<br>> <a ymailto="mailto:kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke" href="/mc/compose?to=kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke">kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke</a><br>> <a
