The difference is they provide true data services. Cable may stop being as much TV and become more ISP. The infrastructure costs and the equipments issues will kill off satellite and they can't easily become a network provider when they lose the TV revenue unlike cable.
The real issue holding back IPTV is the bandwidth concerns and that may be solved a lot sooner than you think.

I wondered about the bandwith on IPTV. Do you think the NFL will go to pay per-view on games?
