You mention that software may be an important part in the CD-I/CDTV
competition.  I read an interesting article in the local paper saying
that two CD-I companies had licensed Nintendo software and/or
characters.  If CD-I has a laserdisk version of Super Mario Bros 6.541,
you can bet it'll have a jump in sales over CDTV, which, according to
INFO anyway, has boring titles (I have no personal experience).  Also, I
think the fact that Commodore will be the only ones making a CDTV
machine will hurt it.  I hate to say 'look at beta', but _look at beta_!
