All that still speaks to a process of bringing your product to market

WE both agree that cable process is not going to be the process now nor in the future. But just so much has been written about the B10 desperately wanting/needing getting into the SE market, not to sell cable packages but something else. That was my point. Not that they were selling cable but they wanted market share. i The SEC wants into the DMv/NC market but it is not to sell cable subscriptions. Discussing linear cable with forced subscriptions,misses the point of the 2 above realities.

My inclination is that linear cable and "channels" will just die off.
