Don't hide behind your petticoat OB as it does you a disservice as no one is discrediting your opinions but is merely pointing out that thus so far many of your predictions for Linear TV and doomsayer forebodings for it are not working out as you predicted.

Interesting also that he is setting his sights on providing a sports option to add to its general entertainment and children's options on its site. No doubt, Disney will be learning from the experience of Eleven Sports in the UK. I see battles with Sky Television looming large here.

“We would like to have an international trilogy of services where it makes sense. We want a sports service like we have here; we want a general entertainment service, which would be Hulu, in different places around the world where we don’t have that; and we want to have Disney around the world.”
Now where have l heard that one before...
