ThedevelopmentofIPTVbyChinesetelecomoperatorsisfirstfacedwithchallengesinpolicyregulation.Inaccordancewiththeregulatorysituation,iffixed-lineoperatorswanttooperateIPTVservicesonbroadband,theymustobtainthe"PermitforInformationNetworkCirculationofAudiovisualPrograms"issuedbytheStateAdministrationofRadio,FilmandTelevisionandthe"Value-addedServicePermit"issuedbytheMinistryofInformationIndustry,adualpermitsystem.ItpreventstelecomoperatorsfromdirectlyobtainingIPTVoperatingqualifications.Thecountry'sonlyinformationnetworktocirculatetheaudiovisualprogrampermissioncertificatewasissuedtoShanghaiMedia.TelecomoperatorscanonlydevelopIPTVservicesthroughcooperation.
