There is indeed a difference between Personal In flight entertainment (PIFE) and Mainscreen in flight entertainment - but when it's all said and done it's still IFE.

By mid next year, NO DJ aircraft will have Live-TV, nor will there be in-seat PIFE.

There will be some form of IFE, maybe tablet style handed out to paying PAX.
