At the MPEGIF Master Class titled “TV X.0 Present and Future” at CES a key part of the presentations and panel discussions will concern Net Neutrality and whether it is a viable concept given the infrastructural investment being made by operators around the world. The Master Class will address the complex relationships between content owners, service operators and programmers; legal precedents and challenges that face them will be explored.
The MPEGIF Master Class at CES is the latest in the long running MPEGIF Master Class series that has been a cornerstone of the NAB and IBC conferences each year.
