1. Not in our lifetimes, in the distant future, perhaps.
2. I think a mixture of both, for a very long time yet.
The difference between "scheduled+pvr" and "on-demand" is pretty much none.
In both cases, it has an initial release time, but can be watched "on-demand".
My wife watches all her shows like this, the sky box records them, she watches them when she is ready, sometimes weeks later.
