Maybe they suck because the airlines run the screens. Why aren't there media or advertising companies running the screens, like the screens in the back of some taxis? In exchange for installing/upgrading/maintaining the screens, the company gets to put occasional commercials in the movies the passenger watches, takes a cut of the proceeds when the passenger browses and buys from Skymall on the screen, etc.

I had one in Boston reboot and then freeze on me. And really, why would advertising companies be motivated to make the hardware cutting-edge? The passenger isn't the customer. The passenger is the product.
