No doubt, what I continue to object about is hyping
up the obvious.
Making content available on line, I have said
repeatedly, is an OBVIOUS next step to Blockbuster
stores or to Netflix. It's not something that deserves
special accolades.
Furthermore, the misuse of common terms is, to me, a
clear sign of cluelessness. IPTV refers to a specific
set of tools used for creating something beyond merely
browsing the web for content. The fact that IPTV gets
misused by so many shows only that they haven't done
their homework. Not very impressive.
