• Very important to get business model right for this to work
• Only free/ad based models will succeed in the long run

• ‘Second screen’ is mostly associated with streaming and requires connection once the user interacts.
• Popular TV channels can create apps tailored for second screen experience
• Novelty wears off and then there is limited interaction

• Including the Broadcast content in ‘data allowance’
• Discouraging users with ‘high premium’ for watching Broadcast content
• Killing the battery with unnecessary ‘caching’
• No ‘unique’ or ‘tailored’ content. Other medium for similar content may be cheaper.

‘DL only’ 4G for Tablets 32

• ‘Downlink only’ 4G radio • ‘No Uplink’ on 4G • Listens to common
channels • Listens to
Broadcast/Multicast channels
• Connectivity over Wi-Fi for any configuration of Apps or radio for tuning
• Would only make sense if additional cost is $10 of less.

‘Apps’ can point to ‘Broadcast’ information 34

• This can work very well as long as apps can generate some revenue
• Operators would need to expose new API’s
