" The TIME is very near when web will overtake (and incorporate) all other forms of media distribution". Although you and I may agree that the web is the greatest advance since the Gutenberg press, it is not present in every dentist's office and park bench. The written media still holds forth by a large space. And at the risk of repeating myself it is the content that interests people not the delivery method. We are here on SI because it is the perfect marriage of content and delivery medium. On the other hand other things are better suited to paper reproduction. Again the reality is will the content providers pay through the nose for something they can create with their own resources. Time Warner could tie in their engine if they were to build one with Web TV and grab you in between your favorite programs. Web TV is Gates' next OS. The big boys didn't get that way because they were sleeping. JFD
