Technology and rights are separate questions
IPTV is a technology for television delivery over the Internet. Arcom distinguishes this technology, which is legal in itself, from offers distributing programmes without authorisation. A search for legal IPTV in France should therefore focus on content rights and offer terms, rather than the player name alone.
Questions to ask the provider
Ask for the seller’s identity, service description, authorised territories and information explaining the rights for offered programmes. An invoice, a well-known application or a high price alone does not establish distribution authorisation.
A player does not certify the service
A player application organises a compatible source; its licence does not automatically provide content rights. Before purchasing an IPTV subscription, check service and player separately. This page provides verification guidance and does not certify the rights of an offer.
