Cable will match satellite in DVR

08/02/2004 02:38 AMDespite a three-year head start, satellite TV providers will lose
their DVR edge over cable companies by 2006, according to
Internet-Based Video Services, a new white paper from research firm
Parks Associates.Although satellite companies began offering DVRs as
early as 1999, they will not be able to overcome the advantages cable
companies have in offering a complete bundle of fully integrated
services. Parks Associates forecasts that, as a result, over one-half
of all DVRs deployed by service providers in 2006 will come from the
cable MSOs. [PRWEB Aug 2, 2004]

Acacia Gets Cocky - Sues Satellite And
Cable Companies
06/15/2004 06:24 PMIt looks like patent hoarding company Acacia is getting a bit cocky
these days. Last year, the company made a lot of news for getting a
questionable patent on "streaming media" and then
suing
porn sites, since they knew people wouldn't pay as much attention
to them. Many sites felt the need to pay up, and Acacia used that war
chest to go after
bigger
companies like Disney. Along the way, they got all excited
because a judge
upheld
their patent rights - but only because no one showed up to contest
them. These wins seem to have made Acacia cocky, and they've now
decided that any company
offering video on demand over cable or satellite
services are also violating their patents. Thus, they've sued
Comcast, Cox, Charter, DirecTV and EchoStar for violating the patents.
These are companies that have a lot of money, and hopefully at least
a few of them will stand up to this blatant patent extortion. People
have been talking about video-on-demand service for ages. It's not a
new concept, and it's unclear (again) how this helps innovation in
anyway. Right now, it only looks like it's going to make
video-on-demand services more expensive. In fact, Acacia will even
tell you how much more expensive: they want $1.25 for every digital
cable subscriber with video-on-demand, $1 for every digital cable TV
subscriber and $0.50 for every analog cable TV subscriber. If they
win, expect to see these charges added to your next bill. Apparently,
higher bills count as innovation these days.

TV over broadband will come from

says Analysys
09/24/2004 03:29 AMTV content aggregation is not a business for network operators, who
will do better to form partnerships with satellite and cable operators
to sell TV over broadband. Gross margins on TV can be as low as 20%
but operators need TV services to compete with triple-play
competitors. Fixed broadband (BB) operators providing TV reduce the
net present value (NPV) of their business model over the first five
years, according to Analysys calculations for this report. Gambling
games are the most profitable entertainment option for network
operators. [PRWEB Sep 24, 2004]
