Perhaps the most outstanding advantage which the condominium apartment owner has over the cooperative shareholder is psychological; a mode of occupancy which unites the benefits of home ownership with apartment tenancy. By contrast, perhaps the most serious disadvantage of the cooperative shareholder is the fact that title to the property remains at all times in the corporation...(Ferrer & Stecher, 1967, Vol. 1, p. 13) 1, record 2, English, - condominium%20apartment%20owner

Vacant land condominiums are designed to take advantage of the combination of individual and joint ownership interests, without the need for buildings to be constructed prior to registration. Such a development would allow purchasers to own the site on which they put their home instead of owning the home and leasing the site.(Burns & McLellan, 1981, p. 5) 1, record 3, English, - vacant%20land%20condominium

Recoton develops breakthrough technology which transmits stereo sound through walls, ceilings and floor up to 150 feet. In June 1989, the Federal Communications Commission allocated a band of frequencies stretching from 902 to 928 MHz for wireless, in-home product applications. Recoton, a leading wireless speaker manufacturer, took advantage of the FCC ruling by creating a new speaker system that utilizes this frequency band to transmit clearer, stronger stereo signals throughout your home. You will be able to listen to your stereo, TV, VCR or CD player in any room of your home without having to run miles of speaker wire. The powerful transmitter plugs into a headphone, audio-out or tape-out jack on your stereo or TV component transmitting music wirelessly to your speakers or headphones. One transmitter, unlimited viewers.(En Route, Air-Canada in-flight magazine, June 1994, p. 24). 2, record 10, English, - wireless%20speaker

The video-on-demand model takes advantage of some form of two-way communication between the home and the video source, which could be a low-bandwidth back channel on a CATV path or a phone line with sufficient bandwidth to carry a compressed video signal. The home may be furnished with a low-cost box, which accepts signals from a hand-held control and which transmits the appropriate status to the video control center. The viewer uses the hand-held control to navigate a selection menu and choose a program. Shortly after the selection is made, the program begins playing. During the course of the movie the viewer is able to pause, reposition, and use other VCR-like controls. 2, record 11, English, - video%2Don%2Ddemand%20channel
