I don't have a clue what any of that means.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

depends on your set up?
my PC streams over to the TV via a PS3,360 or popcorn hour.no need to wait for TV's to catch up
you can get sky via the PC if you are a sky subcsriber.this will be available on xbox 360's soon too
ive bought a few PC games lately via digital delivery and steam http://store.steampowered.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; has been going for yonks
ive lost my old half life discs ages ago but because i registered them on my steam account i can redownload them on any PC i need

digital delivery is the future but and its a big but
the whole infrastructure isn't there
we have a poor internet infrastructure and even on cable you get traffic shaping so whilst companys want to push digital dleivery its a long long way being able to stream/download HD content as a day to day thing
Bandwidth has come a long way - but it isn't yet capable of streaming live TV to everyone and it will be a long time yet before everyone is on broadband and have an uncapped download package.

lol - a nice bit of honesty :Very Happy

To make is simple, in essence the top bandwidth-substructure of the internet is not yet compliant with the digital uncompressed solution format what with the Gigga Bites being so bloody big and the little wires which make up the internet being so little, the bites just can't get through the hole yet! You got it? Nicey. :wink:
