Re: The future for linear TV channels

....but the BBC has a massive income and what do we get night after night on its tv channels, soap and reality mostly. There used to be decent sitcoms and dramas on the beeb, but not anymore and yet the BBC still complain about the amount of money they receive.

What Netflix has shown is that if you can make the right show and distribute it as widely as possible, you can make money. And as I said earlier in the thread, one possible future may be a p2p solution for the funding of high quality tv shows centred around the writers and creators who make the stuff.

I will NEVER go back to aimlessly watching linear channels night after night unless there is a decent and broad selection of shows to watch.
