More competition in the TV-distribution arena is a great thing. So is moving toward a video-on-demand world. But I find it less than ideal to have the same entities controlling both the pipes and the content options, especially given recent FCC rulings that lessen broadband competition. (The SBCs of the world are less vertically integrated than the Time Warners, at least.)

I look forward to a day when TV (a TV-internet hybrid, actually) offers a range of voices comparable to what you find on the web, and that expanded universe becomes as easily available as CBS or NBC.
