If you guys are sick of my WIMAX post give me thumbs down and i will stop. I do believe this is part of the new world content and media and Seven has a hand in both with Wimax and TiVo.
Like Hulu, AT&T Entertainment offers users access to full-length television shows and movies for free.....
"We know our customers want to be able to access their favorite content anytime, anywhere," said Dan York, executive VP at AT&T, in a statement. "AT&T Entertainment provides the one-stop destination to watch your favorite TV shows and movies on your PC, wherever you have a broadband connection. The site will grow and evolve to make more content available to consumers in new and better ways."
The move is part of AT&T's larger strategy to enable content on multiple screens, and rival Verizon is employing a similar strategy with its FiOS IPTV service. This does mean the telecoms are increasingly encroaching on cable companies' turf, and the cable companies are responding in kind.
Comcast (NSDQ: CMCSA) and Time Warner (NYSE: TWX) are major investors in Clearwire and its WiMax network, and the companies will likely resell WiMax to offer customers mobile services. Cox Communications will be using its share of the 700-MHz spectrum to offer mobile content and services of its own.
