No frequency details shown as far as I can see. Its Internet Connection based so its IPTV?

What sort of Internet speeds would you need to comfortably stream 4K without buffering?
I wonder how long it will be before all TV is streamed? 2025 maybe?

I agree, SD will be phased out and HD will become the SD with UHD becoming the HD. In Ireland Siro is currently in progress.
It's a joint venture company between the Irish electricity supply board (ESB) and Vodafone to deliver a 100% fibre-to-the-building broadband network, with speeds of up to 1000Mbps.
With even half those speeds 4K could be streamed in every room in the house without issue.
Will satellite tv go completely and be replaced by IPTV (By the big providers) when a country is covered with high speed internet? Sure hope so.
Altho some parts of the country are still unable to get 1mbps never mind 1000mbps

Yeah thats the key, rural areas still on 1Meg. lol. I'd like to see proper cable in my area. With BT Infinity, box to house is still copper, surely BT will replace that eventually? Virgin are financing a 2billion pound project to get another 2million homes cabled, so maybe a chance here yet!!
