Low slearner?

The set top box -- ready for this -- is a little box that sits on top of your tv. You point your remote at it and choose a program, service, etc. from the menu on your tv screen. If you choose to rent a movie, on the ivod service, say Debbie does Smoothie, when you hit the "yes I want to pull myself off again" button, the stb will send that information to the server (CCUR's product) and the server will send you the signal, which you can then play with (among other things). Ie., you can fast forward through the "plot" and pause at the good positions, even rewinding through the spurts, if that's your thing. The server will also be integrated with the billing system, so that you will be properly penalized in the wallet for your secret desires.

Is that helpful? Enticing?

I use that example, because that will be the big money maker and is why the cable companies are erecting this structure. The business is no longer on the cum, which is why the stock price here is swelling. Our wallets are getting bigger, making our pants feel tighter. Enough, even for me.
