I recently moved into a new house, I tried like crazy to make sure months in advance that all the services companies would arrive on the moving day so I could continue my services. Of course I was let down by non other than my satellite company.

So I started looking around for a alternative while I waited for the next install date to role around. I noticed that iTunes could supply almost everything I watch on TV and using the Apple TV device I could just about replace my satellite or if you have cable that system.

So my question is how can these companies survive. For cable the out is easy, they already have a great delivery mechanism for delivering IP based content directly the home and from the work I’ve done at Cox, they busy doing just that. (On Demand?) What about satellite companies like Dish and DirecTV? I have not seen any real effort in the on demand arena and to be honest they better hurry up. They should at least be providing content via my internet connection AND satellite.

If anyone works for one of the above companies maybe you have some inside info on plans?
