I know you'd love for me to drop this but I'm not going to. This discussion has been going on for over a year now, and the longer it does, the more evidence there is of you treating evidence inconsistently and occasionally changing your position while insisting you're not.

Your opening premise has been well and truly demolished, with evidence, multiple times. You've painted yourself into a corner, dug yourself into a hole, pick the metaphor that suits. But if you genuinely are concentrating on the subject, soon or later you're going to have to accept that TV entertainment will not be radically different in 2025, and start thinking about how VOD will play its part in the overall mix of entertainment delivery methods, and how it will be paid for.

It isn't taking over, and though I don't imagine for a second you're going to admit it, I think you now know this.
