Zattoo to Offer Browser-Based Version

Zattoo, a P2PTV which mainly focuses on European channels and comes with licensed content and DRM, is preparing the launch of a browser-based version of its P2P TV service, Onlinekosten.de reports.

Before making available the new version at a wider scale the company will test it with a small number of users.

Unlike Joost, Zattoo has been more successful using P2P technology due to the fact that its users watch the same channels simultaneously, which helps distribute the video data easier.

Since last July when it said it had three million registered users, Zattoo has launched premium services in several countries.
