I'd do the "one word" schtick, but I think Apple really does put a space in there. Oh, and thanks for the link. Apple TV.

With most networks posting their episodes online with one 30 second commercial at each break, and Hulu doing the same with almost every show, and Surf the Channel providing links to almost any show ever, it's so easy to watch any show at any time, and even whole seasons at once, that the entire arrangement of media in general is quickly going obsolete.

Broadcast network reporters are waaaaaay overpaid. chsw When you visit CNN in Atlanta, you can tape a mock newscast.
