Guess Jim Chiddix is clueless too when it comes to timing on VOD... Time Warner is planning massive, simultaneous digital-video launches in 1999, Chiddix said. VOD figures into that, but Chiddix is also part of the camp that views 1999 as a prove-in year. "I don't think that anybody will have VOD in front of millions of homes in '99," Chiddix said, adding that tests next year will include linking video servers made by SeaChange and its competitor, Concurrent, with S-A's digital set-tops. "They need to show us that it's primetime," Chiddix said. "The pricing sounds right, and the economics sound right."
