Chris -

EXACTLY. More and more of these web-based “television” killers keep popping up but I truly have to wonder how many people really want to watch full length movies and television sitting in front of their computer monitors. If you look at the figures, television set sales continues to grow year after year and I personally doubt that television will ever go away. Google’s VP of technology recently released comments talking about how tv will “change” to meet consumer demands but I really have to ask the question, in the long term do you want to be watching tv and movies on a 20 inch monitor in your office or a 42″ LCD in your comfortable living room?

Not Sure I want to watch TV on my computer. And how does a company the size of HP do a deal with a company called “Dave”?

Some nice deals. Hopefully they will get a good bit of content…Though I’m getting tired of having to have so many different clients installed to get the content I want.

Next.tv doesn’t seem like much competition to YouTube-like web resources since it doesn’t appear to tap into the “public submited” clips that are all the rage, right now.

I wonder if Next.tv will add a blog-like comment feature so viewers can discuss the clips openly… HP is known to be located at the other end of the rainbow where all loops are closed (and locked).

It’ll be interesting to watch ; )

Sorry that was supposed to have a smiley after, it reads worse than I meant it. On the plus side it reminded me of the educational film “Hewitt’s Just Different”.

I know it’s the annoying person that points out spelling/grammar errors, but that’s the worst spelling of Hewlett-Packard I’ve seen in a while.

Still, good story and will be interesting.
