How much have ratings for Chiefs games gone up this year? (I'm asking because I don't know the answer.) My guess is that most of the people who want to see Taylor and her boyfriend have been watching for a while. Some will find they like the game and continue to watch; others won't. And the Super Bowl audience gets to Kevin's point about streaming. The NFL is one of the last big ratings generators for broadcast television, and if it becomes pay-per-view, a lot of casual fans will decide that they'd rather pay for something else. The Super Bowl is particularly strong, and that's the one show where viewers, including those who couldn't care less about football, will actually make a point of watching the commercials. So it's going to be a while before the Super Bowl isn't available free. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
