Ok, so who's going to amend the ATSC standards to get WM9 approved, then update the entire HDTV infrastructure to get everything out there compatible?
Dish Network? DirecTV? Cable Companies? Huge infrastructures built around MPEG-2. Voom is looking into it, but they don't have anywhere near the installed/entrenched base as the others I've mentioned.
We're talking about 2 different situations -- a new product to market vs. an entrenched infrastructure.
