Re: On Demand Programming said by DeeplyShroud :
If I had my way, every house would have at least 100 mbit
connections, channels would be on-demand only.
Feed only the channel the person is watching at the moment.
If the cable box is off, then why send any data to it?
I look at comcast and there are a whole bunch of sports
channels that always say "off air" in the 400's.
What about the music channels in the 900's that are also taking up
bandwidth? There are times I seriously wonder what happened to
customer service? I was looking at new service where I bought a
house, and it's ridiculous. I'm seriously thinking of going back to
OTA TV. Only thing I'd miss is the weather channel.
you don't need 100mbit connections to enjoy on-demand programming:

Torrent broadcast tv and beyond (cable shows on there too), no commercials or b/s! There are torrent sites for sports programming too! Once subscribers get wise... they'll both have to get to the table and hammer out a reasonable deal, otherwise consumers will steal it for free and once they do en-masse... all broadcasters and cable companies are screwed, because once a full-on napsterization happens you ain't going back to paying $30, 50, 80, 200+ a month just to watch tv! hell, no! |
