RNWK or IATV?
...and the public is starting to recognize that companies such as
ACTV [NASDAQ: IATV] can do much more than RNWK.
Besides, IATV has solid relationships with both
Internet infrastructure operators (AT&T, @Home) and CATV
companies (TCI, Fox News Networks). To top all that,
Liberty Media is pouring money into IATV.
Streaming audio and video (RNWK) is nice, but how about
streaming TV/Web access (IATV)?
One thing IATV's tech. can provide:
You are watching a game. You can pick any camera angle you prefer.
You can "click" any player on your screen, and get detailed
statistics about his career (downloaded from the Internet,
through your cable service). In the same way, you can view a
video of his best games, etc. During the game, you want to learn
more about an advertised product, you "click" the product, and
your TV turns into a Web based source of information.
Etc.
IATV's tech. is available now, why would anyone settle for
streaming audio and video, when you can have all that?
Brief, my question is: Why would anyone buy RNWK instead of IATV?
