Mark
Thank you for providing this link. As Bert says, there is a lot to digest in
it, and like everything Bert and I have been discussing, it is open to wide
interpretation.
It's also encouraging to know that Bert and I have not completely turned off
the audience on this forum. By now, everyone who has followed these discussions
over the years knows that for the most part our interactions are well
intentioned. The incessant badgering actually forces us to dig deeper into
subjects and to try to put the pieces of this puzzle together.
The many stories coming out of the UBS Global Media & Communications conference
this week illustrate just how important this debate has become.
Who knew that we would still be here discussing the evolution of Digital
Television when OpenDTV was created...
We are approaching the end of our second decade!
Thanks to everyone who has made this possible.
Regards
Craig
