Abstract :
Share it! is a European project with a focus on developing concepts and solutions for interconnecting digital TV set top boxes that enable users to share TV-programmes. One important goal of the project is to set future standards, e.g. in content management and rights management, for broadband connected digital television. We introduce the project objectives and the consortium, and then focus on how P2P technology and JXTA platform are used in solving various important issues that help to achieve the project goals.
