As much as I'm not a fan of "binge" viewing, I am still a huge believer in "watch on your schedule". Though it is getting increasingly lonely watching Season 4 of The Soprano's.

I sentimentally agree here, but the reality is the NBC/Comcast merger was much more impactful to the industry than this is. And I have nothing against Comcast here - but I just don't think a mega-mega-cable company that also owns the content production side that also owns a lot of technology is really good for anyone.

As long as they are replicating the cable industry's business model with alternate tech, I have a hard time seeing success here. Wonder if they can't find a way to give the platform away free to consumers, then monetize elsewhere - that would certainly put a dent in the claims from the broadcasters. Though it's not an obvious model either.
