BT Vision Will Offer Indie Label Music Videos

UK incumbent telco BT announced an agreement that will allow its Vision customers to access, on demand, hundreds of music videos from independent record labels across the UK.

The deal with Video Performance Ltd (VPL), the music industry organisation licensing the broadcast and public performance of music videos, will allow BT Vision to show music videos from artists such as The White Stripes, as well as hundreds of harder-to-find or classic videos that rarely receive airplay on conventional television. BT is steadily building up a raft of services for Vision - its flagship operation in a converged future.

Dan Marks, CEO BT Television Services, said: "This agreement with VPL means that BT Vision customers will see cutting edge music videos. There will be a fantastic choice from over 900 independent labels, such as Beggars Banquet, Sanctuary, XL recordings and Gut that will be offering BT Vision customers a diverse range of videos from the likes of The Raconteurs, Basement Jaxx and The Pixies,. These will be brought to customers on-demand, in the comfort and convenience of your own home and all available nationwide with no mandatory subscription."

Rise of Software-Defined LEO Satellites

From my vantage point, few areas are evolving as rapidly and with such profound implications as the space sector. For decades, satellites were essentially fixed hardware – powerful, expensive, but ultimately immutable once launched. That paradigm is undergoing a transition driven by Software-Defined Satellites (SDS). A recent market study by ABI Research underscores this transition, painting a picture of technological advancement and a fundamental reshaping of global connectivity, security, and national interests. LEO SDS Market Development The core concept behind SDS is deceptively simple yet revolutionary: decouple the satellite's capabilities from its physical hardware. Instead of launching a satellite designed for a single, fixed purpose (like broadcasting specific frequencies to a specific region), SDS allows operators to modify, upgrade, and reconfigure a satellite's functions after it's in orbit, primarily through software updates. The ABI Research report highlights ...
