Re: Hoax
said by Overdrive  :Really, I am supprised that no-one has done this. Think of the marketing. The advertising. You watch only what you want to watch and once the tv companies see what people like they will adapt and show us more of that. Voice your opinion with your money. When IPTV becomes the norm (about five years I guess) then there are no technical reasons that everything can't be 'on-demand'. For example, you could watch anything for up to a week after its last broadcast, or if you want to keep it, just transfer it to your server-side DVR. This has big advantages for the providers, not least because they don't need to put expensive and potentially unreliable DVRs in everyone's house. It would also allow TV companies and advertisers to get 100% accurate information on viewing numbers. |
