Right now it is apparent ACTV will play a huge role role in Murdoch's ITV plans. From Biz Week. >>The endgame, says Larry Haverty of State Street Research in Boston, is for all the media giants to try to grab a piece of the lucrative subscription, advertising, and E-commerce model that so far only AOL has perfected. ''If you look at AOL as a big cable network, they've got a big market capitalization and these people want to encroach on it.'' But better than most, Murdoch knows what Web mistakes feel like. Aside from missed investment opportunities, his failed mid-'90s attempt to build Delphi Internet Services into a major online service remains a blemish. ''We made a lot of mistakes there,'' he admits. Clearly, he is determined not to repeat them. In fact, the just-remarried mogul was planning to cut into his honeymoon to fly to London to attend the announcement of the Softbank partnership. In old or new media, Murdoch plays to win.<<
