This paper surveys experimental and empirical evidence which demonstrates that users of full service networks will not be happy with less than TV quality images, especially for personal communication. The paper briefly examines the technical consequences of these findings, and the implications for mature broadcast networks looking towards new service opportunities. The conclusions of this paper contribute to a more detailed exploration of the larger set of technical considerations.
