Fully service-based solutions have existed, but most of those were designed for online video delivery for Web publishers, user-created content sites or as institutional e-learning systems only, and don’t support the range of capabilities necessary for a full pay TV service, such as content security, subscriber management and offer management.
Those service-based offerings which were designed for pay TV are either in the process of undergoing a generational change and therefore not yet able to deliver on their promises, or are from suppliers whose legacy expertise is not television.
