To me it all makes sense if the programming is not "scheduled". I didnt see the point in that. But certainly saving favorites (whether locally like a DVR, or just bookmarking) makes a lot of sense.

Hank - I was thinking more than just VOD. I was thinking more of a way to "mark" certain shows (episodes) then either store the custom playlist (ie. my favorites) or yah right a DVR solution. I've got EyeTv along with Titan TV and Toast (Mac) where I can pick a list of "regular" broadcast TV shows and have them written to my Mac by a schedule I create. Toast in this case works like a DVR. So I'm brainstorming here on combining BOTH VOD and/or DVR capabilities to a "Content Machine" like Red5. A DVR solution might be not a good idea, but creating a "my favorite" list (custom personalized playlist) so that when you revisit a site... your content of VOD is pre-selected? hank williams said the following: But why not just do VOD? If you have scheduled programming then you have to have a DVR type recorder, but if you have VOD then people can watch when they want, right? Or am I missing something?
