An “IP based interface”? My guess is that they’ll tweak it just enough so that it’s proprietary and completely negate any actual usefulness.

My guess is that it will be the same as firewire was. It will be ruined by 5C encryption that nobody can get a license to decode.

No, because the cable co’s see a value in it already. Most providers already have pilot projects for whole home DVR service which uses MoCA to stream shows to non-DVR set-top boxes from a main DVR. Uverse does it this way, Comcast has it slowly rolling out in areas, etc. So I would imgine it is as Skirge said, and it will just be locked down by the industry for the industry only.
