I want my (Online)TV! + painful LOST withdrawal
My wife and I are really huge fans of the TV series LOST but due to the writers strike we have to wait until end April to find out how 6 survivors get off the island
Another problem we have is that as we are in Europe, abc.com blocks us from seeing the latest episode. So, as addicts, we resort to paying for TV through iTunes. I am getting tired of this…which led me to wonder when we are going to finally get to a good service for ubiquitous internet TV? When will the internet finally kill the TV star? What will this look like and who is in the lead at the moment?I have not heard much about this lately. With their interesting social online model & CBS as a big backer, a year ago, Joost appeared to be the heir apparent to the online TV title…now I am hearing about new entrants like Hulu. In any case, someone needs to make this easy and accessible. The competitor that figures out how to build the right ad model, while combining the best of the web + TV is going to win and the big companies are all going to dive right in…

BIT TORRENT.
Very true indeed…great point. I guess it is time now for a proper mass solution.
