No mental block here, OB.

I’ve been clear throughout my view on how I think the market will evolve. Differently and much more slowly than your fanciful, and unevidenced, speculation that often involve claims of commitments from major players that haven’t actually been made, claims aren’t meaningfully binding and claims of unquantified savings from ending linear broadcasting.

Your absolutist view leaves you blind to the fact markets often evolve much more slowly, and ‘inferior’ technologies remain much more stubborn when they are the established standard, based on the real world habits (and spending) consumers actually do.

You say you don’t want to go round in circles yet the next digital marketing blog, or report paid for by a steaming conglomerate, promoting their own products over others will be held up as gospel that the end is nigh.
