When I invited him to repost his (probably revised) position on the topic using the correct terms he told me no-one but a few awkward types cared about the different meanings.

And yet they clearly greatly affect his central claim.
Which I have explained on several occasions. Not everyone is too bothered about these differences because the average punter looks at on demand and they look at streaming and they have the same experience. Most will understand the difference between that and our conventional broadcast channels.

Despite going on and on about these fine differences, why not concentrate on what you know is the suggestion - that our conventional broadcast channels will ultimately die off as analogue has done?

Stuart and Horizon have done a good job at explaining those differences so now we can all understand.

Now let's move on, for pity's sake.
