Is this the beginning of the end of free internet tv?

I don't know i guess - the individual channels which offer on demand and catch up services will still exist.

 

I suppose pay-as-you-go movies and sports will be good for any no sky subscribers.

20 years from now (or maybe sooner) all Sky's output will be via the Internet because it will be cheaper than beaming into space and back. By then we will all have fibre optic hyperband (it won't be called broadband by then) connections to the Internet!!

Most "free" Internet TV is illegal pirated stuff anyway, so it may not be such a bad thing...

 

Do you not use iPlayer, or 4OD Rich?
