Integrated AVOD with a multi-terabyte storage database holding thousands of movies, TV shows, and albums from all genres, including all of the latest new releases, refreshed continuously via the on-board Internet connection. (If on-board Internet is too slow, they can string a fiber optic cable along with the fuel hose and rig up a data update port right next to the fuel tank cover--at 10Gbps, it could add several new movies in the time it takes to add fuel... )

Hey, that's what other airlines are doing (well, at least the having-lots-of-selections-on-an-integrated-AVOD-system part--not sure about the fiber cable part! ). AS used to be a technology leader. Hopefully they can soon recapture that spot in the market.
