Ed,

Glad to see you on a safer thread.

My feelings about the business models are that the Internet is a communications medium; i.e., two sided interaction. I think its possible to embed a TV in the WEB but not the other way around.

The IATV business model is an extension of TV broadcasting. In essence a move to sustain TV in its current form. I believe it can only exist in this high margin value network and will be very vulnerable to narrowcasting and other true WWW forms down the road.

I also think that TV viewers do not want every channel to look like Home Shopping on methedrine. With a keyboard in one hand and a mouse in the other as advertisers track their every move.
