I would have to agree. Video games are too technologically dependant. The Olympics have long been about physical strength and endurance. Video games are hardly about the physical. They will stay out of the Olympics for the same reason Chess and Monopoly aren't in the Olympics.

I am all for a true World Championship. I don't think I would watch it though.

Netflix vs. Blockbuster Revisited 349

Thomas Hawk writes "Exactly one year ago at thomashawk.com Davis Freeberg debated Wall Street analyst Michael Pachter regarding the future of the online DVD rental world. Freeberg maintained that Netflix was the clear and obvious choice for a winner while Pachter predicted that in the next 12 months Netflix would significantly underperform Blockbuster. Now another look one year later at the competitive landscape in the DVD market. Pachter is nice enough to continue the conversation and even admits in hindsight that he made a mistake regarding his prediction on Netflix vs. Blockbuster for the year past -- but Pachter still maintains that Blockbuster has the upper hand over Netflix in the coming year ahead. Freeberg, of course, thinks he's wrong once again and that Netflix will continue to dominate as the leader of this market. "
