Re: Internet a "staid" platform? Exactly. The only innovation in the TV world seems to be "how can we integrate with the Internet." For example, providing "bonus features" online (like Mythbusters extra footage or Heros' online comics). Other than that, it is pretty much business as usual in the TV world.
The Internet world is constantly innovating, however. Something that is cutting edge becomes "for power users" in 1 year, "for most users" by three years, and is obsolete by five years.
Right now replacing TV with Online shows, I would say is cutting edge/power users. In a few years time, it will be simplified enough that most users can take advantage of it and then cable services will begin to seriously suffer.
Let Cuban think that the Internet is staid and TV's the key to innovation, though. His companies will flounder and sink if they ignore the Internet and rely solely on TV. -- -Jason Levine Support a children's charity. Buy a calendar and/or a photo book. Shooting For A Cause |
