To create a powerhouse strong enough to spurn a tornado. TVGIA will open the doors to the last obstructionists, the cable companies. Indeed, that is a compelling reason that could help us establish a cause-and-effect relationship between the merger and increased rate of adoption if the numbers are big. However, Stew reminds us regularly that the revenue derived from the cable providers is relatively small compared to all the other sources. I think it's about 10%. If I'm right about that, we won't see TV Guide's relationship with the cable companies kick-starting a tornado. Stew? Anyone? There's nothing more I'd like to learn than that I'm wrong about that. --Mike Buckley
