Your are so right! How is it that I've not seen this elsewhere. I'm sure as hell not going to sink thousands into players and discs that could turn out the be the next Betamax. The Hi-Def DVD format war will drive the public to, at best, on-demand delivery or, at worst, piracy. Wow! Your are so right! How is it that I’ve not seen this elsewhere.

What television needs is it's own Ipod and I don't quite think the bandwidth and DRM are quite there yet. Sony's UMD format for the PSP seems already dead though, so perhaps your prediction will be correct.
