Doug,
From your comment regarding P.T.Barnham I take it that there is a parallel
in that he apparently made money by exploitation? I am not particularly
familiar with his works but I understand he was successful by giving people
what they wanted. I cannot say that DTV quite meets the same expectations
right now.
