    There's Youtube out there, and it seems to function very nicely. How come there isn't the average episode of JAG, Scrubs, Wheel of Fortune, etc,. on the internet yet? By can't they broadcast it, perse?

    I'm not computer savy like most of you...so I'm just curious why no ones really pushing this on the net (or am I wrong?). I'm sure there's a growing market that would love to have a little small screen of their favorite show on their monitor while typing away on the average internet forum.

    ?????????
    Clue me in.

    It does exist, but where I live it's quite expensive, both in monthly fee (or in 'pay per episode', and in the required hardware. You need a digital TV/decoder, and the monthly fee is much higher then for average tv.
