As for quality content I completely disagree. People all over the world are starting to realize that the technology exists for you to produce a multi-camera high-definition show or movie at the cost of consumer video levels from the 80s. The know-how is extensive (with the fields being predominantly staffed by freelance talent) and have a number of people (myself included) looking to leverage the incredible power of the web in creating quality, instant-feedback programming. Look at justin.tv's API, and the ability to not only stream live IPTV, but also react and message in real time within the show's distribution environment and we're at the beginning of something big. Content truly is king, but the cost of entry is being mitigated daily, and the snails pace at which the big networks, cable companies, etc, are evolving is going to leave them in bad place when we get organized.<br><br>I think we're about to see an explosion of content, and be empowered to affect that content on a week-to-week or day-to-day basis.
