I tried to post this last night-I took part in a focus group today, thankful to have to leave the house. I only knew it had something to do with internet service. Well this company wanted to get people's feelings on high-speed access for $46/month, and which services they would be interested in on top of that. "Movies On Demand" would be ready for viewing immediately-twenty new release movies, eight hundred plus from a library all with stop, rewind type functions. Cost is an additional $5.95/month plus $7.95 per movie (ouch!). Another service is "TV ON Demand" which takes 10 minutes after your order to view, I assume to download to a disk in the settop, 800+ titles current and past with VCR funcionality. Cost is $11.95/month plus $.50 per show. Other sevices they wanted to know about is Satellite TV, Gaming, music from 800 internet radio stations, Video Gathering, Unified messaging and Voice Telephone service with the capacity for four voice lines without additional wiring (so this is voice over IP) with a $300 one-time fee for phones. My guess is that this was for AT&T who I believe is the only cable co. in the area and because of the telephone services which seem pretty extensive. Isn't $7.95 per new release VOD movie a little high? I thought TWX was around $3.99. Whoever it was, I'm glad of their interest in VOD. Looking forward to the weekend when the market is closed and my nausea dissipates. Thank you guys for the good info. Nick
