TV that will simply show what we want to see, when we want to see it. Ah, yes. Video On Demand.
Since I have yet to buy a DVD player, I'm anxiously awaiting this technology to be introduced. The technology basically already exists - it just needs to be implemented.
However, I fear that it will take years to iron out all of the licensing, etc. among all of the entertainment companies.

When I had cable they already had movies on demand.
The issue was the limited selection, and they didn't seem to do much to build the library. They had some old stuff, but most movies that were new disappeared when their PPV run ended.

Comcast is already offering Video On Demand to their digital cable customers--most of the good stuff is pay-per-view of course.
