I was writing about what digeo labels "VOD" where a
cable subscriber will not need to home-record the
Sopranos (for example) when the show airs to be able
to watch it at any convenient off-broadcast time. VOD
is set to allow viewing a cable show anytime a
subscriber wants. No additional tv tuner needed. As I
understand it, VOD is not like FTP, for a number of reasons.
