Another quote from #5397. bob, quite right - so close! "The main issue that faces the industry is the integration and availability of chips," said Henri Joubaud, technical director of Canal+, Europe's largest cable television company. Canal+ launched its premier multimedia service in France two years ago, and now offers enhanced services in Spain and Italy. "When you are thinking of making multimedia products that are more sophisticated, and you want something affordable for consumers, you need to have good prices. So at the end of the day, the issue is with the silicon industry, and the ability to have reliable chips for a cheap price."
