The original point was that IPTV ends up being a walled garden just like cable TV or DBS TV, for some very good reasons. Since you were trying to make the point that IPTV eliminates this "problem," assuming that IPTV would "separate content and carriage," I was countering that it would not accomplish this any more or less than cable does. Same-o same-o. If you need to create a walled garden, you will have all the same problems as other walled gardens have. I knew what you were trying to say, and was pointing out that it ain;t necessarily so.
