The last significant change in television viewing habits occurred when people no longer were bound to watching just the 'big three' broadcast networks and began including hundreds of niche cable networks.

Today, another titanic shift is occurring and it is caused by two specific technologies: IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) and VOD (Video on Demand). What makes this interesting is that the balance of power is shifting from the network scheduleres into the hands of people.

This shift will have huge ramifications on those that make content for us to watch, those that distribute the content, and the viewer. It also will lead to another round of winners and losers for investors and venture capitalists. At this blog, I will try to bring news about digital television to you and analyze what it might mean. Seperating the hype of the press release from the reality of sustainable business.
