The ability to seamlessly watch what I want, when I want, in 1080P [and in Ultra HD in 10 yrs] on my living and bedroom screens, and downloadable to those handy PMP hard discs, SIM and flash cards is the mantra. True, very hi-speed downloading into the home will make streaming superfluous in the coming ultra FIOS years, with the exception of timely news & live event programming. I should know, as I am a late 1940s product of the commercial TV generation. The free 60 year old television & 80 year old radio models, paid for by advertising, are in no need of reinvention or tweaking. Give us 22 minutes of programming and 8 minutes of ads every half hour, and we'll all watch as we always have. Go ahead, make a $buck. You're entitled, as long as you inform, entertain, & educate me. Ah, free enterprise, now free of the FTC, FCC, and Standards & Practices. Gotta love it! Transparency is the key operative word here.
