- Description:
- Let’s face it. TV Sucks. We all say it – we all watch it. But now, something is changing. There’s a new sheriff in town, and web video is fast nibbling into TV viewing. But, not so fast, old TV is fighting back. Networks are micro-chunking segments, and putting more of the prime-time lineup on the web… for free. So, who will win? Will web video undermine the economics of Madison Avenue CPM’s. Or will Hulu and others come roaring back?
