Inaddition, cable television (across the wire) has been around since the late 60's, early 70's....

It won't apply as prior art because Tv, satellite, etc are not user selectable to choose to view a specific file/movie.

being digital is the first key, so cable and satellite are included.

Acacia's patent also covers Video on Demand.. so references to VOD systems prior to 1990 would definitely help with prior art.
