Here in Canada, the federal government – and one with “Republican style” leanings – is seriously going after the cable companies. The mandate? To provide the public with an entirely ‘programming on demand’ model. Pfffft go the private broadcasters and the “57 channels with nothing on.” They are also deregulating wireless/broadband to allow foreign competition for bandwidth. It could get really, really ugly. The fact of the matter is that the middle class STILL doesn’t have any dough, nor do they have job security. Outsourcing and technological disruption rumble over the landscape. Baby boomers hang on to their jobs, digging in their fingernails until their 85. Wait until the coming food riots begin.

As long as there is an ‘off’ switch on your TV, there is hope.

I agree re the bloodbath coming, but not re the forecast future scenario – it’s possible that TV companies might dominate, but in my experience with them, which has mostly been in the UK, they are very ‘legacy’ business models as much under threat as other past and present legacy businesses / sectors. UK’s BT (used to be British Telecom) has launched an audacious challenge to Sky and is already eating into Sky’s subscriber base as well as threatening ITV (UK’s major terrestrial soup-to-nuts TV company). Yet my extensive experience with Telcos here and around the world tells me they’re still legacy models, albeit somewhat trimmed down legacy models. I would thing it’s more likely that one of the ‘new’ rich techs such as Apple, Google could dominate, although it’s a ripe target area for a private equity ‘buy and build’ strat.

Imagine working in an industry with a lifespan of 10 years. Who thought the DVD would only last a little more than a decade. The CD made it 25 years. Evolve or die.
