Is that a book or an online article? I understand that many won't want it but I think it is coming anyway. No one wanted pay per view either but now it is a standard thing for many. Just tonight I heard that movie studios are trying to fight on line movie piracy by offering their own versions for PCs, why not TV STBs also? I won't argue that business is likely slowing and could get lousy, especially since many cable operators are hurting for cash during these buildouts just like the telecoms were in teh fiber optic mania but sooner or later, I see new movies piped in the home, movie rentals on line instead of tape from the store etc. The other interactive stuff probably is mostly useless fluff though so I will agree there. I guess I am just blind and get interested when I see a PE under 50 now days. -ggggggggggg- Good Luck, Lee
