No Mike, I don't agree with that at all. The content already exists but the trick is going to be allowing the viewer to interact with the content. Let me give you an example - do you watch Jeopardy? Most people who watch it also play along trying to match wits with the contestants. Now imagine having the ability to actually play along through an interactive remote control. Sound impossible? Not with ACTV's technology. Do you watch sports on TV? How about having the ability to choose the camera angle during a baseball game or pull up stats of a player off the web while you're watching or even chatting with others on the internet who are watching the same game. Read this post to get some more insight on how Fox plans on utilizing this technology: Message 10402943 I've just scratched the surface as to the possibilities but keep in mind that Liberty Media and Fox control enough content to fill several TV channels 24 hours a day 365 days a year.
