It's a shame you did not post links to the stories you read at the time, it may have saved myself and other members, who posted their thoughts on the possibility of HBO launching a streaming service, from a fair amount of ridicule.
Never mind though, eh.

My original views on the subject were purely based on the fact I couldn't see any firm paying that kind of money for exclusive rights when the content could be shown on subscription elsewhere.
