I think the article mentioned some sort of peripheral to connect to your
TV for about $50. Again, the manufacturers don't wish to eliminate their
peripheral market, so there has been a bit of "feet-dragging" in the
development. If they build a TV that simply accepts the cards, there
goes the peripheral market. Many TV's already accept the SD/XD cards
from your cameras.

I saw the following article a couple months ago: the classic '80s film
Ghostbusters was released on flash drive.

Also, Ringo "don't send me anything to sign" Starr released his latest
album, Liverpool 8, on a flash drive bracelet (as well as conventional
CD).

But to have a *rental* flash drive... now that's interesting. Would I
want to watch a whole movie on my computer when I have a nice 42" LCD?
No. Would I take the time to hook up the laptop to said LCD? Yes.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
