It's both, but VOD will be key.

Cloud based STB is the next step. No need for 2,3,4 hard drives in a STB, just record all your
content to a data centre in the cloud.

Your recordings become VOD, well you don't actually record.

Anyway, STBs as they are now will be a thing of the past in 3-4 years.
