Phil Dobbie the host of Twisted Wire writes "Right now, all over the world, a battle is being fought. Everyone knows that we will soon be watching a significant amount of IPTV, but who will profit from this shift? Existing TV companies have agreements in place with the content providers, but internet service providers have a strong relationship with the end user."

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 23:36:00 EST http://www.coxmedia.com.au/articles/114/the_news_cycle_dooms_newspapers.html One of the major factors threatening the survival of newspapers is that technology has critically altered the news cycle.

Wed, 20 May 2009 15:02:00 EST http://www.coxmedia.com.au/articles/112/debunking_nbn_myths.html Crikey last week published an article by Laureate Professor Rod Tucker at the University of Melbourne debunking some myths concerning the practicality of wireless and hybrid fibre coax networks (HFC) to provide the same capabilities as FTTP as proposed by the Government. C-COR Broadband’s Dermot Cox wrote a response highly personally critical of Professor Tucker and accusing him of bias and supporting cable broadband operators without pointing out that C-COR is a cable network supplier. As this is a highly technical area I asked George Green, an international broadband expert based in Hong Kong and technical adviser to CoxMedia, to write an explanation of the technologies involved. Green is an expert on last mile technologies for broadband networks across the entire Asia Pacific region including broadband modems, Fiber-to-the Home (FTTH) solutions, wireless gateways and Ethernet and DSL MPEG 4 Set Tops. The paper has been written for the technically interested layman as well as the technology experts.
