That is why I separated the IP and the TV when I wrote the message. I
KNEW that you would jump on this and try to link it back to the Telco
walled gardens. Get over it Bert. The walled gardens are just one
approach to using IP protocols to deliver TV content. You can keep
correcting the people who are abusing it, but this will just confirm
the reality that you are missing the forest for the trees.

P.S. Apple stock was up more than $4 yesterday, erasing the loss of
the previous day.
