Mr Internet TV: The Ego and The Id

A breathless spin through a quite literally unbelievable life, Mr Internet TV: The Ego and The Id by John Bentley is a raucous tale of ambition, hedonism, and evolution. I am a former entrepreneur and inventor, having been the first to create video on Internet TV in 1995. This memoir tells the never before told story of the invention of streaming Internet TV and my battles with giants of the PC world to find my place in Internet history. One which incurred big personal challenges to myself and family, both financially and in the need to retain self identity and sanity. Being a memoir, it covers 60 years of my career in media, from ads to movie making to video to the Internet. It is also a story of love lost and found, and as such crosses a number of genre categories, from business and technology to the entertainment world, high society, royalty, and politics across several continents. Benefitting from the laurels of a silver-spoon upbringing, the author details his astronomic rise in the business world thanks to his prophetic ability with media and technology. From childhood recollections of wartime Brighton and a sky-high social circle to erotic Hollywood rendezvous and scaling the mountain of a filmmaking empire, this sprawling memoir transports readers into the rarefied air of life at the top.
