Every current cable TV subscriber had to have a truck roll, and yet how many people still use rabbit ears to get their signal?
If ATHM can't figure out how to do a self-install, it is not likely that anyone else can either. Any would-be competitor has to roll 1.8 million trucks to catch up to ATHM. That is a substantial lead, and only getting bigger.
I'm not saying that they shouldn't try to make the installs faster and easier, only that self-install isn't the ultimate driving factor for ATHM's success.
This is door-to-door evangelism. Slow stuff until you get a critical converted contingent. I'll interpret your short position as the divination to buy.
