It has a great potential in terms of user readiness to subscribe to new multimedia-based services". Vladimir Petrov, CEO of COMSTAR-Ukraine, added: "Given an acute demand for such services, the launch of IP-TV in Odessa is an important step towards large-scale triple play package service introduction. While the country IP-TV market is being shaped, COMSTAR has a competitive advantage providing its subscribers with a full set of services available from a single operator”. <<< Back |
