abukhari,
(late edit below, see p.s. ... sometimes it takes a few minutes for things to sink in ;-)
Interesting. However, one would think that if Comcast is going to make either of these available, then they would (if not immediately, then eventually) deliver their PPV, and VoD streams (at least) over the digital portion of their cable spectrum, as well.. using enhanced stb's to do so. Then again, aren't there some stb's, themselves, that are being designed to avail themselves of these features too?
Or, am I missing something, and this is what is, in fact, being proposed in the previous example discussed, initially?

ps - Okay, now I see. We're not just talking about PPV and VoD, are we? We're also talking (probably primarily talking) about regualr programming. But then what "about" the PPV and VoD features with play back that the stb's will support? Will we have multiple devices/appliances capable of doing the same thing cluttering up the living room or den? The computer room? Or, wherever? Heck, the PC itself with the proper program could even be called upon to take up some of this slack, couldn't it? |
