More closer you get to the customer bigger ARPU you can create. Okay not the bigger ARPU but bigger portion of ARPU that you expect. Since the cable industry is such that it operates right from where customer is it gets the near full portion of expected rent (or subscription you can say). IPTV will have to build a service network which other than providing after sales support can also reduce the lost subscription due to non payments. Then IPTV will be generating far bigger ARPU than what cable industry today is. Have no analytic data but something that I have experienced.
