According to Wikipedia, Web television (Web TV) is not to be confused with Internet television or Catch up TV. Web TV is an emerging genre of digital entertainment that is distinct from traditional broadcast television.
Delivered originally online via broadband and mobile networks, Web television shows, or Web series, are short-form in nature (2–9 minutes per episode), episodic, and produced in seasons.
In 2008, the International Academy of Web Television was founded with the mission to organize and support the community of web television creators, actors, producers and executives. It administers the selection of winners for the Streamy Awards.
We have seen discussions in Indiavibes Facebook page, on whether Indiavibes is really the First Web TV of India. Indiavibes have given answers too:
- Indiavibes shows more than a “Web Series” like in any existent ones.
- Indiavibes content are custom made for Internet Audience & extends beyond a “web series”.
- Contents in Indiavibes are made by our own production team and not sourced from any content providers outside our network
- The best reference for a Web Tv on a International level would be revision3.com
