Gates agrees, Live TV is dead

Scott Rosenberg is at the D Conference:
Gates talked in very broad terms about TV/Internet convergence and Microsoft's "IPTV" initiative. What, Kara Swisher asked, does that do to the broadcast model? Gates "It's gone. It was a hack. People want to watch what they want to watch."

However, Gates' Windows Media DRM is also a hack, and one designed to stop people watching what they want. Still, interesting to see him say it.
