I was looking at the courttv website and they have some trial online but not the forensic files show.

I used to watch that all the time on cable, but I don't watch tv much anymore. But I would definitely wath the show online at my convience.

So my thinking is that people who like tv will have cable and rather watch the show on their fantastic tv. So even if the show is broadcast online, the show would not reduce it's tv audience at all. In fact I think it will simply mean that many people will watch the episode twice and thus see the ads again. And people like me, who never watch tv, just increase their ad expose rate.

I think networks that ran a lot of their full shows online could blow youtube away. Of course there is the issue that some shows are produced by independent studios and they are the ones stopping the online distribution.
