Frank you missed the point

The article is not about moving television onto the Internet. Its about people preferring to spend time on the Internet (doing other things) than just watching programmed TV.

I have to say i am one of the above and thats not to say i don't watch films or tv programs its just that i choose the schedule and then mix it in with email, games, IM and reading/surfing.

Fudementally 'the Internet' is a far more flexable and useable medium with Broadband. This is where alot of the ISPs and analysts got wrong when talking about Broadband adoption, they thought you needed new apps to justify the cost/switch.
