No, really.  In this Brave New World, how do I watch the Superbowl?

There is some television that by it's very nature is appointment TV. We all know that the "cloud" doesn't cope very well with everybody trying to get the same thing at the same time. In other contexts, it's called a "denial of service attack."

So, how do I watch the Superbowl?

"This time the war will not be won by the company that perfects the logistics of moving DVDs, but by whoever can best negotiate with Hollywood studios."

The author should have added: AND THE SPORTS FRANCHISES.

Personally, I prefer to watch the ads the next day from the cloud...
