"One of the UK's leading terrestrial broadcasters is to throw its hat
into the broadband
TV ring.
ITV will trial a TV service via the internet, which will offer people the
chance to create
their own schedules and broadcasts.
Local content, including classified advertisements, will be key to the new
service.
Using high-speed net connections to deliver TV content is capturing the
imagination of
broadcasters and telcos.
The three-month trial will initially be aimed at viewers in Brighton and
Hastings,
although ITV plans to extend to other regions if it is deemed a success.
Viewers will be invited to upload their own reports and budding film-makers
will be able
to showcase their films as part of a drive towards citizen-led TV. "
