I am pretty sure in our market - we will not fly without some kind of tv

  The service we rolled out was identical to any cable system - but
  better. We of course could overlay outages messages, etc. You could
  also view your content from anywhere with a mobile device and a login,
  including your DVR'd recordings.

  I fully believe that most content will become their own services /
  apps in the future, but for the *majority* of current cable
  subscribers, the transition will take a long time.
