DBC and others emerge as a webcasting content providers for "Downtown" check out: www.incommon.com

Incommon's webcasting "push agent" technology called "Downtown"
appears to be taking shape as a competitor to "PointCast".
With the known alliance between Microsoft and PointCast, is the Spring Internet World 97 advertisement on the www.incommon.com site suggesting Netscape's partners now include Incommon's "Downtown" and
as a direct answer to the MS/Pointcast team?

If so, it appears for the first possible solid thread between Netscape leaveraging DBC as well as others, as webcasting content providers.

Incommon is a privately held company - it appears at the moment anyway, DBC has the sole financial content partnership agreement here.
Seems to me DBC would be as good as any new promising IPO web investment.

Any other interpretations of this rapidly emerging webcasting game?
