Probably software/infrastructure related, flick, not content. Sounds like RNWK, no? It would seem that HAUP needs to work with somebody to create de facto standards for broadcast digital TV on the desktop. If I were HAUP, I'd be partnering with RNWK to capture the Mo-Mo of the RNWK brand. Alternatively, you could make a case for MSFT who would likely pony up big dough. If HAUP planned on making a joint venture deal with a portal, TV network or content specialist, think they'd be making a big mistake. Funny, analog broadcast receiver PC cards never went anywhere. (Anybody out there own one?) At a good price (way lower than $500, say $199-$299) though, digital PC cards could really launch HDTV/digital TV, especially if the extra bandwidth is put to work with enhanced services and interactive data.
