Streaming can become king for all I care. As long as I have the choice to keep using an STB with record, FFW, and rewind, I will be happy.
That being said, I still don't think streaming will be future.
Oh, you can already watch programmes without ads - it's called the BBC, but that is something else you to change - which ironically will have to show adverts to help fund it if you had your way. That in itself is equally ironic, considering your hatred of adverts    |
Verizon and Comcast have released STBs that stop you from fast fowarding the adverts, expect similar devices in the UK within next 4 or 5 years.
Streaming companies will probablly follow HULUs example one price for a comercial plan say £8p/m and a higher costing plan for no commercials say £12p/m. HULU currently do this commercial plan $7.99p/m (£5.20) and none commercial $11.99p/m (£8.25).
