For good or for bad the television experience, at some point, involves plopping down on the couch, turning on the television and flipping. Having to not make a decision of what to watch before getting a 3 second preview. In what I hope will be a new emerging media delivery model, streaming internet video does not offer this method of viewing. This is not the only shortfall of bringing the masses into the fold of internet television (hardware being the largest) but it is something to consider. My proposal: have a favorites list of channels/networks that would mimic televisions stations (this could be preset with popular sets and customizable). When “flipping” a “channel” would play a 10-15 second cold opening to draw viewers in and commercials could be inserted at any time after this. These programs could recycle after a 30 minute period to also mimic television operation. This concern may be a way off and is not the ideal operation of internet delivered video but I would like to see more people on board with a new model, this may be a piece in bridging the gap.
