India – Indian telco Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd. (BSNL) has launched an IPTV service called ‘MyWay BSNL’ in the city of Chennai in association with Indian firm Smart Digivision, according to reports in local newspaper The Hindu. The new service offers over 150 linear channels as well as video-on-demand and music-on-demand libraries, and a parental lock to block certain content. BSNL plans to introduce features such as the ability to pause live TV in the near future. Customers can either rent the set-top box required for INR 50 (US$ 0.99) per month, plus a deposit of INR 1,000, or purchase it outright for INR 2,500. A new operator of IPTV services, Smart Digivision delivered over the fixed-line networks of local telcos BSNL and MTNL, and was reported last month to have selected solutions from US firm SeaChange in order to enable its rollout of on-demand, broadcast and converged service offerings.
