While surfing the Ripe corporate website, I stumbled upon the list of Ripe's
buzzwords, glossary, and even a FAQ.

Hmm, some quotes looked familiar. Oh that's right, it's all lifted from "The
Video on Demand / Interactive Television Dictionary" ISBN #0970285000 - 'For
individual use only'.

Hey its just text, right? A handy link -

>Ripe Entertainment is introducing a free "on-demand" cable network, 
called RipeTV, which will have advertising embedded into its shows. 
It has seven different types of advertising that will not be able to 
be fast-forwarded through when recorded on a PVR. RipeTV's CEO, Ryan 
Magnussen, calls it "TiVo-proof."
