    For me, as a Canadian, the key question is whether the content can be viewed outside of the US. I can't watch Heroes on the NBC site, but I used to watch Seinfeld on YouTube. Which model will they follow?

    I'm trying to remember one instance when the corporate heads managed to beat something like YouTube that got popular virally (without buying anything) and I can't. History repeats itself (;.

    i struggle with approved TV content on the 'net..... the last time I tried to go to NBC and catch an episode of something, the servers realized I was Canadian and shut me out.... I wonder if this new initiative will be more accessible globally, or remain US specific?

    Funny how they winge and moan about all the money they're "losing" due to sites like YouTube then they turn around and spend millions upon millions to reinvent the wheel...

    Looks like old money making their move to brainwash us some more. The way TV integrates into Web 2.0 may be significant to the future of the Web.

    Mass appeal and the old dollar appear to be as strong as ever. When I first heard this news I was delighted, and then I realized just who and where TV is. MySpace for crying out loud, that is like saying NBC is still NBC fools!

    I am not sure what we are supposed to expect, but once everyone (well nearly) is set up to accept myspace as the place to be, I guess they figured no one was paying attention any way.

    So you ever feel like you are in a chess game where the outcome has been determined?
