7 Summary & Outlook 1&1 has built the product around Linear TV and EPG. So far consumption is foreseen at home with an 1&1 broadband access. This is interesting in times where the industry discussion revolves around SVoD and OTT. As for 3 rd party integration, only maxdome is being re-sold via 1&1, but there is no deep product integration with any Premium VoD 3 rd party yet. Cloud PVR becomes more and more popular in the markets, some are already offering sufficient amount of cloud storage. All relevant Cloud PVR services are still only running on the concept of private copy in Germany. Entertainment offerings remain a key component to drive and lock-in access business, while Triple Play pricing for a standard bundle is leveled out across the key players. Questions to follow-up in the coming months: Is unicast IP streaming becoming the key delivery method for Linear TV? Will 1&1 open up its platform for 3rd parties and become the one-stop-shop for video? When will 1&1 loosen the access bundle allowing out-of-home resp. off-net usage?
