Why Apple's iTV Will Fail, With or Without Google http://seekingalpha.com/article/17161-why-apple-s-itv-will-fail-with-or-without-google?source=feed#comment-64778 64778
Apple will put "near DVD quality" movies on the web for the first couple of months to drive holiday sales of the new iPods. Early adopters and people who travel for a living will d/l a ton of movies. I'd rather pay $13 to d/l "Pirates" to watch on a flight than to buy a bunch of magazines on the airport newstand.

When iTV is ready to ship, Apple will upgrade the video (for free). iTV will be a huge product next holiday season.

PS - Near DVD quality is not that far off from DVD quality...]]>
