Electric Shadow 1: Bicycle for the Mind
by asymco-admin
Horace Dediu and Guy English discuss the future of TV, how we consume media, and the fate of console-style devices. From Apple to Nintendo and beyond, is there one box to rule them all, or can there be?
Interview segment: Cinematographer Barry Braverman talks about working with director Wes Anderson (uncut version to be posted as Screen Time #54)

Loved the big data rant.
I think the deciding factor in whether or not ATV will be a hit is the Apps. If Apple offers an App Store, it could be very game changing: we will see a shift in the business model of content owners and content distributors (cable companies).
I think Apple has the technological problems solved. The big obstacle is shifting from a channel paradigm to an app paradigm.
