Folks, please, put away your fanboy goggles and think about the possibilities of this. This isn't what the others are attempting, and that doesn't matter. Don't fight this just because it's MS or you want to hate the X1 or because Apple, Sony and Google aren't attempting it (yet). This is about the future of technology and entertainment content provisions. This is ... everything ala carte. Movies, TV, music and ... games, ala carte. No more searching or trying to decide where to find it, just that you want it, asked and received. This is creeping toward the computer on ST:TNG. Thanks for this, dis. It makes me feel more confident that we'll see something disruptive this gen instead of iterative. I'm actually starting to get excited even. |
Im just happy someone is able go see this and understand why its exciting. :)
Working for an online department of a large cable company ive been able to see the disconnect between cable TV and online video consumption first hand. Both have a different monetization model and they often clash in terms of interests and frankly, its very hard to move forward with technology and not step on someones toes. And with all that happening behind the scenes, users are stuck in the middle...
This is the first possible solution to the future of TV problem ive stumbled upon which is technologically sound and frankly very exciting, and allows for everyone to do what they do best and keep their jobs.
