The OTT side is already being implemented by a major broadcast customer of ours. Right now they simply rebroadcast their news, both live and prerecorded, i'm assuming until the national networks and syndicators will allow reasonable OTT licensing fee's. They use a product called SyncBak (for which they've also invested in heavily) and offer the streams for all of their market stations nationwide. You can in turn use a Roku or Roku like STB to ascertain the feed, live and in HD at that. We currently provide the fiber and peering facilities, and are intimately familiar with the network and video production side. Very neat product, at that...

Because local OTA channels are probably most of what people want live outside of sporting events.

Does multicast have any future? Netflix, YouTube, et al does not use it. People want instant replay and a catalogue to select from. Except for sport events, live TV has no advantage so why even try to optimize for it?
