Irdeto and IBM System x

To provide consumers with more choices on how and when they enjoy media content, telecom service providers are deploying a wide range of revenue-generating services like personal video recorders (PVRs), video on demand (VOD), push video on demand (push VOD) and impulse pay per view (IPPV).

For these new business models to succeed, telecom service providers must protect the media content from piracy in order to secure revenues for both themselves and content providers. The challenge for many telecom service providers is to deliver consumer convenience and flexibility while securing and increasing the profitability of content creation and distribution.
