The aspect of Rdio which most appeals to me is their subscription model. Vdio doens't have that, so I'll stick with the Appleverse thankyouverymuch. Has better integration into my life.


My thoughts exactly—minus the Appleverse, which to me, is still not good enough.

Not Good Enough—I want a subscription to all TV shows, delivered to my television when they air or after, on-demand, at any price. I will pay over $100 per month for this subscription, if it's a good user experience.

No one does this yet. Pirating is not a cheaper alternative, it is a higher quality alternative. People are still paying to pirate television, not because it's cheaper than cable, but because it is far better than cable.

Come on networks! Get with it. People want this.


I'm with you, but given that no one does this yet, if I am going to be paying $3-$6 to watch something, I'd rather do it on my Apple TV.
