The fact is that video should not be exclusive but rather distributed cross platform This means as many quality sites that can get video watched. My SMM company has been focusing on this major fact and has watched our clients video being distributed cross platform result in increased viewers and site traffic as a whole. So Rupert keep staying ahead of the pack. One last thing, What is the largest video site on the internet? Oh ya MySpace! Rupert knows best.

Will there be functionality with the dozens of other media center extenders and portable players? Will it be more convienient than torrent? Simultaneous release on dvd street date? Will there be free tv downloads with embedded ads? DVD burning would be useless, because you could hopefully stream it with media extenders. The quality would most likely be "near dvd", because I don't know too many people who would wait 6 hours for a HD version to download. They'd have to have nice software like the XBOX360 live marketplace where you can start watching the video while downloading. Many questions about the largest download store. As you can tell I dislike apple, but I try to keep up with them since I'm in the industry.
