What else do the service providers need? They need new content and applications. Video needs to offer more than what the cable companies have. Think of all the specialized vertical content that cable networks made possible. MTV. ESPN. CourtTV (well, there's something for everybody). Now take to the Internet, and multiply it by the thousands. Imagine accessing Internet video databases that can be ordered and cached on your PVR or transferred to a sort of video iPod, or ViPod (surely Apple is working on this?). When video is married to the Internet, that's what you'll get. The Scuba Diving Channel becomes a possibility. Or, better yet, Light Reading TV, which is launching on this site next month.
