VeriSign has been quietly rolling out Kontiki through partners such as Time Warner's(TWX Quote) AOL, the BBC and SkyTV to mixed reviews. A trial allowing all of the BBC's content to be downloaded won praise but also brought the usual complaints about overly restrictive digital-rights management software and harsh limits on how and when the content could be viewed.
More than anything, those issues will stave off the long-promised revolution of Internet TV. But if they're resolved this year and that revolution does happen, VeriSign might be the dark-horse candidate that could end up reigning in the new regime.- Loading Comments...
