Re: Linear is old tech - on demand is the future

I think the problem is you simply aren't being objective about the subject matter any longer.

Of 29 threads you've started on this forum five have been pretty much pushing the same subject.

2015: https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...php?t=33699901
https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...php?t=33700639

2017: https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...php?t=33705428 - it's not exactly the same but cord cutting gets a link from Rapidtvnews of all places.

(this thread - 2017) https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...php?t=33705051

2018: https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...php?t=33707196
which was closed because you keep opening threads on the same thing.

Your previous link which referenced the Superbowl was discredited because the number of people intending to view the game was in no way comparable with the proportion of the US population who actually do.

However, it presented a further problem, which favours the continued existence of traditional TV. Those who watch events (not just sporting events) and interact with social media, WhatsApp, friends rely on doing so simultaneously which only broadcast linear television can supply. That's gold to advertisers seeking a demographic during programming like I'm a Celebrity, X Factor, Britain's Got Talent, etc.

Your own example from NBC I have demonstrated as Comcast selling their content end to end via other Comcast companies. You haven't demonstrated how it is distinguishable from an existing Comcast product - Now TV - or that it doesn't favour Sky remaining the market leader in this country.
