• Uniformity: same interactive guide experience regardless of device manufacturer
• Open: Standards based rather than proprietary, enabling MSO and 3rd party application providers to write to standard APIs
• Time to market: write one application and run on all devices rather than writing multiple similar applications
• Device qualification: devices are qualified to a standard, so integration of new devices is faster and less costly
• Interactivity: DSG (DOCSIS Set-top Gateway) environment facilitates fast bidirectional communication
• Abstraction: middleware abstracts hardware from applications
• Retail sales enabled: consumers can purchase televisions and other devices and connect to Comcast supplied CableCard
