Multicast is dead. Feel free to disagree. :-)

Multicast will never be dead. 
With ever raising bandwidth needs we'll always welcome a distribution method
that allows us to pass the same data least times over the least number of
links. 
We all remember the spikes in BW demands when the Austrian fellow jumped
from space

And regarding the global m-cast. Well we don't need it. 
You can get the IPTV streams via direct link or via common carrier's mvpn
