I haven't been able to figure out what Tmrent thinks and I have quit trying. Ken

Robert, a fair question. I will try a simple statement of what I think Mr. Rent's position is: Regardless of the merits of any particular server/system, it is no mean task to test, operate and debug a home VOD system in a real world environment. Laboratory testing is not the same as the real world. Diva is the only one who has been doing it for years, and is therefore the only one in a position to actually deliver VOD service to real homes today. If I am correct, my statement contains two very important assumptions I would like to point out. The first is that meeting real world conditions is really much different than can be imposed in a lab and the problems time consuming to deal with. The second assumption is that no other suppliers' servers have been tested in home VOD real world environments. I do not have a clue whether or not these assumptions are valid, but would very much like to see some comment from our resident experts. Very simple first grade question - have CCUR servers been tested anywhere in the home VOD real world? Yes or no?
