The greatest challenge for me as it has been with CDN in the last year is just educating the industry on these technologies and how they can be valuable and creating methods by which they can transition to them without it becoming a huge undertaking which they absolutely do not have time for. Also there are so many different variations on the theme for how different programs deliver content and as you point out the ideology of the model they have committed to (monthly subscription all you can download.) In the next few months all the major Streaming providers CC/L3 included will be moving to Flash 3 and h.264 HD support. It will take a while for the adoption of this to kick in but once it does , and with the additional Flash DRM component I feel this will be the way most of the big players will be delivering their content. It could take a year to transition, but before that happens we hope to have some very cool tools in place to make it as painless and affordable a process as possible.
