"The TV guys are much more comfortable with the future. They have global networks that will be very hard to replicate, seemingly indestructible brands, and the visceral human attraction of moving faces and objects to keep them in business. " Actually, tv guys need to perk up, and pay attention. Onion Site, is just one example of a tv show just waiting to happen. Envision, if you will, the day comes, when computers can download tv shows, as easily as they now download emails. The cost of the computer is cheap, cheap, like today's cheap. Now, imagine the web site above, no longer restricted to web site stuff, but capable of providing regular, updated tv shows, radio shows, for a worldwide audience. The talent is out there, the technology is here. All we need is the ability to hook everyone up to the internet, and tv and radio as we know it, disappears. Knowing this, the tv guys need to understand something else. Nonprofit organizations, such as Public Television, are where folks will migrate, not commercial broadcasters. But, then, I'm biased. :)
