Cable Companies to Offer Interactive Standard
An AP newswire article, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
A new software system being deployed by cable TV companies and electronics makers will make it possible to buy a television, connect it to cable, and instantly view movies on demand, shop at home and control multiple devices with one remote.
Comcast Corp., Time Warner Cable, a unit of media conglomerate Time Warner Inc., and other cable companies said they would begin offering the new standard in selected areas this year.
The new technical standard is called OpenCable Application Platform, or OCAP, and was developed by a consortium of cable TV companies over the past several years.
