Cable company VOD:
- You have to subscribe to a cable company's television service (which I don't want),
- Limits you to using their set top cable box (which I certainly don't want),
- Ties you to one regional service provider.

Internet downloads:
- Flexibility and choice of your own hardware (e.g. Netflix on Xbox 360 or PC),
- Choice and competition between providers (e.g. Netflix and iTunes),
- Doesn't require that you buy other services from the same company.

Physical media (Blu-Ray discs):
- Flexibility and choice of your own hardware (e.g. PS3, stand-alone Blu-Ray player, PC),
- Choice of rental or purchase.
- Choice of retailers, both mail-order and brick-and-mortar.
- Superior image and audio quality.

I agree with what you say about not limiting choices, but your assertion that Cable VOD should not be one of them is a bit contradictory...]]>Dec 11th 2008 11:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/lionsgate-exec-speaks-on-day-and-date-dvd-vod-releases/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/lionsgate-exec-speaks-on-day-and-date-dvd-vod-releases/Dec 11th 2008 2:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/lionsgate-exec-speaks-on-day-and-date-dvd-vod-releases/http://www.engadget.com/2008/12/11/lionsgate-exec-speaks-on-day-and-date-dvd-vod-releases/Dec 11th 2008 5:01PM
