Every time the market has troubled the status quo, networks=20
have failed to find ways that adapt to that market. The=20
market ends up working around the network.

Napster and all the goodness that followed it, is one such=20
example; until iTunes adapted. And yes, iTunes is NOT the=20
network.

Now the OTT's are driving the network hard, and the network=20
des not want to adapt (perhaps calling in the FCC is=20
adapting... not).

So expect the market to work around this as well. The=20
network keeps getting left behind...

Mark.
