Samsung Teams Up With Telefonica To Offer IPTV Service
Samsung Electronics has teamed up with Spanish telecommunications company Telefonica S.A. to launch an Internet Protocol TV (IPTV) service in Spain.
The service, which is offering access to 119 TV channels and 30 audio channels, does not require a set-top box, which helps cut electricity costs and allows users to access the service with their remote controls, Samsung said.
"We plan to bolster cooperation with various companies in Europe, which is leading the world's IPTV services," said Kim Moon-soo, a Samsung executive that heads one of the company's display businesses.
