Hey Rande, I was reading in the trade publication Broadband about set top boxes and why we won't be seeing these things rolled out for Christmas. It's due to the lack of agreement between the content providers and the equipment makers/deliverers about encryption. They can't figure out how to protect the copywritten material once it's delivered. Essentially they need a LQID-type company for streaming video, movies, whatever comes through the box. Since you've been all over this sector for a long time now, do you know who these player's might be? After MP3, I think the big Hollywood studios are going to make sure their stuff can't be ripped off. They are having a hard enough time trying to quash the illegally recorded tapes being sold overseas. Julie
