Want to try that again? Let's take a look at quantity of movie selections on your AVOD PTV:
CX offers less than 150 movies on their PTVs for a route such as JFK-HKG for March 2016 - just check online here:

Delta's newest Panasonic AVOD system (found on the A332s and the refurbished 73Hs one would fly from BOS to HKG via SEA) features 220-280 movie selections, significantly more than CX or many other
international carriers out there:
- Swiss has about 140-150 movie selections on their newest planes
- Qantas has about 100+ movies on their A380s

- BA has about 140 movie selections on the A380 from LHR-LAX for example:

- Even Etihad only has 120+ movies to choose from:

- And Virgin Atlantic has under 100+.
The only ones who beat Delta are Emirates, Qatar, and maybe Singapore.
