Hey, BAM, I hope you were referring to their writing, not mine.

When you have time I would appreciate your thoughts on the question I posed last week on the Fool's BCST board:

>>> You appear to understand the technology, (or don't you?) that is able to put video on the internet. I do not. Could you offer a more in depth analysis of the the different technologies. Do you have an opinion on when video compression advances plus widespread broadband coverage will make this a viable media? Years or decades? We both know it's going to happen, the only real questions are when and which company will "own" proprietary rights to the most widely accepted serving platform. (Mr. Marlow, do you agree? Your opinion is valued)

Sorry if the questions are basic as RNWK 101 but I have no technical background. My REAL question is the last one about whether one company can gain the rights to *THE* accepted serving platform. If that's possible I'm willing to wait for the other technology to catch up.

Thanks, BAM, I appreciate all the info you've posted on the different boards. I'm still playing catch up. Rory
