Video on demand is something that the cable companies have been talking about for a long time, but have been reluctant to move toward. Apparently it is so much easier and cheaper (i.e. much less investment in servers and content management) for them to offer near-video on demand (rolling schedules of start times), not to mention the increased predictability of demand over the network if users cannot determine their own start times. Users also seem unwilling to pay a price premium for this service. Killer apps? Put me down for VoIP or unified messaging (fax, e-mail, voice mail, etc. readable as text or audio)
