<<I wonder sometimes why TV Guide, as a premium publication in its field, doesn't seem to interest people as a common stock. >>

My guess is they will and probably soon. My understanding from following SRCM is the co's will be presenting a new business plan to the analysts as soon as a definitive agreement is in place. I believe this will be the first time TV Guide will get specific about their digital interactive gameplan. Their deal with TCI alone gives them 10 million likely customers from the getgo.
I expect the revenue opportunity to be nothing short of staggering.

Toby,
I just wandered over from the actv thread. I'm sure that Malone and Rupert will make this a winner. I understand that actv's tech will be used in TV Guide Interactive. I think that the implications for advertising and ecommerce are staggering.

I only have one question. I have not followed the legal disputes between TVGIA and GMST closely. Can you summarize the current situation and give me your take on the likely outcome?
Thanks,
Jim
