You know, Fora TV, I'm not especially interested in all these industry bigwigs pontificating on how they're going to rule the internet. If this is all you have these days, just change your name to NetCEOsRus, so we can look for something else instead.
I'm sorry, are they wrong? Do Hulu (owned by NBC/ABC) and YouTube (owned by Google) NOT currently own the internet? Don't you want to know what the people who are in charge of these outrageously successful companies are THINKING?
This isn't what they're thinking, so much as a public relations effort to get us to accept their rules. I'm not interested in it. Fora TV was showing different things when I subbed. If it were about what they're *doing* to the internet, as described by a careful observer, that would be fine.
No, I don't thumb down someone I disagree with. I only thumb (up or down), based on the value of their input to the discussion; even (read especially) if they disagree with me.
Hulu, YouTube, Facebook, etc.... they dominate the internet. They own it, like it or not. Do I mean they literally have the rights to it? No. But the internet is THEIR domain. The only reason we're having this discussion is because YouTube (and therefore Google) allows and provides for it.
Hulu, YouTube and sites like Facebook, etc do not dominate the internet. Not by a long shot. And no, the internet isn't THEIR domain. It's OUR domain. And if we weren't posting here, it'd be on a message forum. Just like this forum allows communication. Sorry if I'm not making sense, I'm tired from coming home from work.
Competition is only good for the consumers. It makes the media better and lowers cost. Most people that supply media would rather not change and just leach those thirsty for it dry. After all its all about the money in capitolism.
vonage is dying,cable is dying and they know it. i do not have cable tv anymore -just watch hulu and netflix.Im tired of paying for 100 channels of what i dont watch and paying over 100 a month. Monopolies need to die.I certainly dont get a refund for what channels i dont watch.

Mass media is in its death throws anyways, it won't be a decade before bloggers and user created "news" will out-distribute mass media.
The people will reclaim the market man!
