Interesting commentary by the HDTV gadfly Mark Cuban, on Apple and ABC providing shows like Lost and Night Stalker as $1.99 downloadable media. It's an interesting business model to consider... how many people will download a show like this? I wonder how many people have bought an episode of Lost so far since Apple's announcement. Frankly, I'd pay a little more to catch this past week's episode of My Name is Earl in high-definition, as apparently my HD reception of the local NBC affiliate was totally pooched, and thus so was my recording. (And I only live four friggin' miles from the tower! Grrr.)
So hopefully Apple will bring HD to the table soon. In the meantime, Cuban makes a persuasive argument for the networks to embrace this new model.
