IPTV (Internet Protocol television) is a service that provides television programming and other video content using the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) suite, as opposed to broadcast TV, cable TV or satellite signals.

An IPTV service, typically distributed by a service provider, delivers live TV programs or on-demand video content via IP networks.

An Best  IPTV system may be use to provide video content over a private network in an enterprise, although such implementations are far less common than subscriber-based models due to the complexity, network latency and scaling issues.

Types of IPTV Services

We separate IPTV services into two different categories – verified and unverified.

Verified IPTV Services

These are services readily available through popular app stores such as Amazon App Store or Google Play.

We assume that these are 100% legal due to the fact that they have been approve to be in these popular app stores. Both Amazon and Google would probably be liable for copyright infringement if they allowed illegal IPTV services.

Unverified IPTV Services

We then define unverified services as those that aren’t available within the popular app stores.

These are IPTVproviders that require their subscribers to sideload an application that pulls in the live TV channels.

Due to the fact that TROYPOINT has no way to determine whether these services carry the proper licensing, we call them unverified services.

Some of these are definitely delivering channels that they don’t have proper licensing for.

Verified VS Unverified IPTV

Most cord-cutters accessing this page are interest in the unverified IPTVservices. This is where the biggest savings occurs and includes the most channels/content.

As of now, subscribers of the verified services are paying almost as much as they would have through the traditional cable/satellite packages. The big names in the business have basically moved their service over to the Internet and charge the same!

Unverified services usually offer thousands of channels, sports season packages, PPV events, and more for $10 – $20 per month.

The biggest drawback to using an unverified service are legal questions and possible identity/security vulnerabilities.
