it's a p2p world (at least in 2007)

Intriguing list of predictions for 2007 laid out on Newteevee. Perhaps I like it given my bias towards the emphasis on the power of p2p distribution for video content.

Feels like 2007 will be year of continued standoff between p2p guys and content developers...with the battles won as always by the leverage points (read: you got good content people want, you got leverage...you got content that needs exposure you ain't got so much leverage).

And let's not minimize the powerful potential benefits for anyone in the biz that comes from declining bandwidth costs...the more the distribution economics of web mirror those of TV the more incentive to get video content in the cloud.
