However, even Job's himself stated this isn't meant to take over as a single source of acquisition/consumption. I know I'll still use my dvd player, satellite, YouTube and Torrents as video sources. But there are times when I want to watch something that simply isn't available through those means. It's at that moment when I'll turn to the itunes store. I'm sure that I'll enjoy the experience and be okay with the cost. I also expect that the experience will be so pleasant that I'll occasionally turn to it even when other means are available - likely because it will be easier. I'm currently consuming about 90% of my media through non-traditional means. To me, all I want is a REALLY basic cable package, one that doesn't cost $40/month. I'd love to be able to buy per channel. I still have a need to consume live news/events, but that's about it. Good points, all of them.
