'Rather than wait for the NBN to deliver multicast, we have worked out how to use existing technology to deliver high-quality video-on-demand using fetchtv over the NBN,' Internode product manager Jim Kellett said in a statement.
Late last month, Internode commented on the NBN Co's draft plans for the multicast service, saying it felt amongst other suggestions NBN Co should adapt the proposed pricing scheme to increase competitiveness.
Internode also suggested NBN Co detail what plans, if any, it has for the provision of the service over its 4G fixed network saying; 'as the construction tender has been let for the fixed wireless network, surely NBN Co has some idea of whether it will be trying to make multicast work over this technology as part of that tendered design.'
The company's FetchTV Full service is currently only available to customers using Internode's own network, with a low-end service, FetchTV Lite, available for all other Internode customers including customers using the NBN in the trial stage.
