A one size fits all stb. A bit like the new Suphub.
Yep, but Liberty's cablecos are all very different from each other. So, even if most of them run Horizon on the same box, surely it must be different versions of the software depending on which cableco it is??

The only way I see that changing is if they move their tv over to IP standards and run it over DOCSIS3.1, probably using switched video too. So, at the moment its not quite one size fits all despite what they say.
