If the companies that are building out all the broadband and fast speed in home capabilities can survive in the stock market, VOD will become a huge business. Track all those companies if you're interested in making some money down the line. It's time to look again at companies like Cisco.

I know this isn't much of an Internet topic - but I just saw a Pentium 4 commercial on TV and I'm so pleased they're still pushing that - since that the chip that my new computer has in it. I would hate to see that Pentium 5 was coming out next week.

The number of people renting movies on DVD through the online subscription-only service Netflix nearly doubled in 2002, rising to 857,000 in the fourth quarter, up from 456,000 during the same period a year ago. The company also reported that its average monthly "churn" -- the percentage of people dropping out of the service -- dropped to 6.6 percent from 7 percent last year.

Internet Music Tunes Hit the Charts, FinallY

For the first time, the songs and albums that consumers pay to download from online services will begin showing up in the influential Billboard music rankings. The decision to track the sales by Nielsen SoundScan -- the company that collects the data published by Billboard magazine in its sales charts -- means that a key gauge of popular music taste will begin to reflect the influence of a new breed of consumers who buy songs on their PCs, instead of going to the mall and purchasing a CD. It will also raise the public profile of the authorized online music-selling services, which are in a hard-fought battle to woo music lovers away from illicit networks like Kazaa and Morpheus. The first of the new data will be unveiled Wednesday. Sales of downloaded singles and albums will be incorporated into Billboard's traditional charts reflecting overall sales.

A survey conducted for the British Internet service provider BT Openworld, operated by British Telecom, has indicated that Web users now spend more time surfing the Internet (3.5 hours per day) than they do watching television (2.8 hours per day). Reporting on the survey results, today's (Tuesday) Guardian newspaper commented that they "will provide further grist to the mill of those who argue the web will eventually spell the end of linear television."
