I'm sorry that I am coming into this a little late. My understanding is that there are several good companies vying for dominance in interactive TV. I guess I don't understand why this discussion is in relation to GMST. I see them as two very different kinds of services. Len, i agree this belongs on the wgat thread...i was responding to questions that showed up in my mail box from this thread. at post number 1053, i tried to explain my vision of the process...if you disagree i would love to hear why. i agree with you about many are involved in the interactive tv area...but in order to interact you must first get to the internet. do you know of anyone else's software that is going in to set-top boxes to do allow you to do that? unclewest for the record i have more gmst shares than wgat. it has been thru studying gmst that i came to believe that wgat's role is unique.
