Besides Netflix, does anyone else offer CDN boxes for their services? I'm also guessing that most content won't benefit from multicast to homes too much?
I can see where multicast benefits sports and news (and probably catching commercials for people). But in a world where I'm more than happy to pay Amazon $25-40 a show/season to avoid commercials, I'm guessing live/broadcast TV will get even less popular (I get news via YouTube - so that's not even live for me anymore).
