Despite being one of the most central consumer services in our lives today, it has not been possible to experience TV on the move until recently. However, several trials have taken place around the world that have demonstrated consumer demand for mobile TV and given every indication that it will become a mass market.

Indeed commercial services are now being provided over both cellular and broadcast networks to satisfy early consumer demand. 

For example there are commercial services being provided over broadcast networks in countries as diverse as Korea, Italy and Germany, where subscriber numbers are in the hundreds of thousands.
