Opening
All these Dutch links, are these really relevant for this page? I would propose to move these to a Dutch page about streaming. User:jvdstoel 12:05, 2005 Aug 18
I'm going to make a pass at copyediting this page. Swmcd 15:07, 2005 Mar 4 (UTC)
I did a cleanup and removed the cleanup notice. It still needs more references, and will doubtless benefit from some more eyes. Swmcd 06:42, 2005 Mar 7 (UTC)
Oh wait
I was a bit over-assertive in my edit summary ("There were no CD-ROMs in the 1980s"). Yes, there were CD-ROMs in the 1980s, but they weren't used for most of it. CD-ROM "multimedia" really took off in the early 90s. RSpeer 17:10, Mar 21, 2005 (UTC)

Streaming Services
I think that this section needs its own page, something similar to Major film studio. My7thsecret (talk) 02:31, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
Merger proposal (March 2021)
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- The result of this discussion was do not merge at this time. - - mathmitch7(talk/contribs) 15:25, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
It looks like @CoolingGibbon: proposed a merge last month, and there's not a talk page discussion about it yet, so here it is. The proposal is that over-the-top media service be merged into this page, as "Streaming media is OTT by definition in modern usage" (from this edit summary). I personally think that the pages should not be merged as streaming media is a sort of sub-category of OTT media services as I understand them. I think that both pages could/should be edited to clarify this relationship instead of a merge. Open to hearing otherwise, just my two cents at this time - - mathmitch7 (talk/contribs) 13:03, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose - Over-the-top media service covers content-delivery aspects that are not streaming media so not appropriate to merge here. ~Kvng (talk) 15:49, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. OTT media service appears to be more or less a business classification of service, rather than a technology, which appears to be the aim of this article, no matter how poor the definition here, or there, is. kbrose (talk) 21:56, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. The two terms are not even vaguely similar. It would be like confusing say "racket" with "tennis", or confusing "sports" with "football". 24.42.191.195 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 16:20, 4 May 2021 (UTC)
