Alan it's going to take a VERY long time for our content to be delivered via streaming. Broadband hasn't gotten to enough parts of the US, let alone the world. If you think that a wireless broadband would work then you need to look into AT&T's problems with their data network in NYC. Their network got so bad at one point they stopped selling the iPhone in NYC for a while. So the moral of that story is the more devices you have utilizing the network the more usuage and the more congestion. "Traditional" ways of distributing live and network TV isn't going anywhere anytime soon.
I will agree that our channel is moving towards a mostly labor model. If you aren't into the complete package and including control then you need to get on that train quick. Learn about IP because it's becoming increasingly more important to know.
Who says you can't put 61" plasmas up on cantilever mounts using toggle bolts? <---Thanks Ernie ;)
