Perhaps ISPs will not count the HD Video into the bandwidth caps, just like they don't count ondemand content in at the moment. There's absolutely no reason Canadians wouldn't want to watch HD movies online. The CRTC in Canada is extremely cautious about letting new competitors into the market.

From what I understand that equals to 15 high def movies assuming you are not doing anything else. So either they compress the movies to lessen the size or providers lift the stupid limit. Or Canadians just don't watch high def movies online. I wonder how does that tie with Canadian providers limiting the internet traffic to 60 gb per month.

They have some other cool features (their CMS is impressive) and have definitely overcome a hurdle in partnering with Microsoft to bundle their plugin with Silverlight - but that being said, I expect high quality Flash encodes to steal some of their thunder. Proprietary encoder boxes suck, too. Also, Mike - Roo/Kit Digital is a fading blip on the radar. I suspect Microsoft will acquire Move as it will help further their Silverlight initiative.

That burn rate would suggest to me that the required adoption rate is a long way from catching up with what the company needs.

Unless some killer compression algorithm comes into play the bottleneck will continue to be the last mile to the homes. Until fiber to the home (or something equivalent in download speeds) becomes ubiquitous, you won't see someone like Apple offering anything to the public (I'm sure they are keeping their eye on it for when it does). Even if Fiber to the home starts to come along, from what I have read most ISPs are overselling their bandwidth. Both at the back end of the networks and closer to the homes. If all your neighbors on Comcast started downloading at 3Mbps, your neighborhood connectivity would probably begin to stall significantly. If all of the Comcast users went for a large download at the same time, their network backbone couldn't handle it. It is more of a timeshare situation and so far it has yet to bite them in the tukas, but that time is coming if they don't build out or light more fiber. @Brian

QuickTime has existed for years and was at one point considered a key technology for Apple. They had Streaming Server and some interative features long before others. Now when you look at ABC and ESPN, which are parts of Disney, making deals with other tech vendors it makes me wonder why Apple hasn't been pushing for this market? Are the margins just too small?
