Intel hopes it can create a successful, and sizable new business selling video entertainment delivered "over the top." But don't count on that service saving you money, or "disrupting" the video subscription business. It won't.
As planned, the new service requires that a customer first buy a video subscription service, then pay for the Intel offerings, and use an Intel decoder box as well. Intel’s web TV service will not offer
la carte access to channels and networks, either.
Disruptive? Not really.
