We are already seeing this on some networks with the "animated logos" and the "coming attractions" that are placed on the bottom of the screen at the beginning of the programs. More and more of this will begin to happen as Tivo and similar devices make standard ad formats obsolete, on the theory that the user can't "skip" these ads without also skipping the program they are wanting to watch. And soon, we will see ads the entire time the program is on. First it will be a little logo in the corner of the screen, such as VISA(tm) or COKE(tm), then it will progress ( if progress is the right word... ) to a "strip" of logos across the top of the screen. Of course, that's the day I give up TV entirely. As it is now I only watch it for sports programs and the history channel. :) Unfortunately, what I see happening is that TV will go to a “pop up” ad format.

When people record tv shows on their VCRs, they don't become unplayable after 6 months, and neither should P2P tv shows. The dvds can have bonus material to get people to buy them.

I don't think people will want files they have downloaded to become unusable. They should at least have an option of paying for a version which isn't varporware. Regarding this:
