I think as paid TV options become more available, those services will continue in popularlity. TiVo has established the idea of time-shifted TV and films, so it seems a natural next step to offer those time-disconnected files for sale, for reasonable prices. I think iTunes continues to cement their position with this advance. I probably won't buy much (none of the shows I like ae yet available) however, I have a feeling this will change quickly. It'll be nice when I can pick up an episode I've missed or want to see by simply visiting iTunes (or Amazon or whomever will offer video for doanload at decent prices). Nice follow-up Mike.
