This exciting home entertainment service, called i-Fun, currently offers more than 6 TV channels to 5,000 subscribers in Taiwan. The company plans to roll out a total of 10 channels and support up to 20,000 subscribers by year-end, offering service categories such as Entertainment, Karaoke, Cartoon, Lifestyle, Online Shopping, Online Stock Updates and E-learning.

By adapting Streaming21’s carrier-grade KOD solution, we can get to markets quickly with differentiated, profitable service offerings and achieve our strategic competitive goal in moving into the IPTV business. Lung Hwa will not only play a leading role in the 3C industry but also extend our business portfolio as an end-to-end IPTV solution provider. We expect the rollout of the newly-launched KOD service will boost our competitiveness in the IPTV market.�

Dr. Joe Lin, President and CEO of Streaming21 said, “Streaming21’s Karaoke On Demand is creating new market opportunities with demonstrated growth potential, especially in Asia Pacific. We have built a reputation for providing carrier-grade IPTV solutions to numerous telcos in Asia and our award-winning solutions allow any Broadband ISPs, Mobile Carriers and xSP providers to quickly launch IPTV services with minimum capital investment. We are confident that KOD will be an exciting niche service for consumers and will generate new opportunities for innovation and growth in the IPTV industry.�

The Karaoke On Demand solution is able to accommodate a wide selection of karaoke titles with carrier-class stability. Intuitive EPG, unique interactive features, convenient online payment and a powerful service management system offer immediate adoption of new home entertainment services. Additional interactive features and services can be easily integrated into the iTV platform, such as online karaoke contests, online voting and much more.
