Jeff, The answer is privacy! And the fine line between determining what is "an invasion of privacy" and what is "providing service" is the source of great debate. This argument didn't hold for the internet. Your DNA is everywhere you go and easily traced. Some will like the PVR concept and some won't. Others will choose a service like WebTV Plus or AOL TV. The majority will feel comfortable with the IPG navigator and it will be central to all the aforementioned services and as a stand alone interface. Personally, I don't care for the PVR-type products (current stage) but I hope they succeed as they give the IPG advertising space more value. Regards Stew
