@Cyberion - GREAT article, thanks!
@DopeWeasel - Thanks for this News posting.

Quote:
The executive vice president for research and planning at CBS, David Poltrack, elaborates: "In our research with consumers, content-on-demand is the killer app. They like the idea of paying only for what they watch." The trick, he figures, is to work out a solution before the audience for illegal downloading becomes truly huge. He figures the networks have 10 years.
Clearly the MPAA is as dumb now as the RIAA was back during the Napster startup. They need to embrace BT and use it to their advantage right now. Offer the media content users want on demand right now for such a small fee it's not worth taking the risk of downloading illigal. Wake up MPAA and get the old farts out from behind their desks and put some new blood in there that understands what's currently going on.

Edit - I think this thread should go in Team News, moving
