dan.ackerman 10/27/2016 5:21:39 PMThe presentation here can't be beat -- there's quite seriously nothing as archaic as traditional cable TV menus and on-demand systems.

dan.ackerman 10/27/2016 5:24:30 PMPeople love to talk about cord-cutters and on-demand TV, but I think there's still a huge need for live programming. Fortunately, some apps, maybe not enough, offer live TV.

dan.ackerman 10/27/2016 5:25:09 PMThat's the main reason I've never been a cord cutter -- as a news guy, I'm too addicted to flipping between 24/7 live news channels.
