I never got the whole in-room pr0n thing myself, but the other thing I glean from this is that there's a new VOD platform coming to Marriott. (??) I don't even look at the movie offerings since the current platform is so far behind the technology curve, but I might if the new platform is comparable to some of the better online streaming services.
I doubt I'd ever pay $12.99 to see a first-run movie, but I'd probably pay $2.99 to see something farther out on the long tail. Seems like the technology should be there to serve both audiences.
