toby10, i think you're right in that the networks relationship with the affiliates needs to change.
People are watching the networks programming because its a popular branded item. I think most folks could care less if those network shows are attached to a local affiliate. The local stations will need to take into account how people are going to be watching tv product in the near future. At the same time, companies like comcast should also be prepared for the shift. I've yet to meet a person who thinks that the current cable tv structure is a good thing. 500 channels? why? most people watch between 3-5 networks of tv regularly. change is gonna come either way. it would be unfortunate if the tv biz went down the same path as the music biz. -- exile ------------------------------------------------------------------------ exile's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82366 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
