They know they have a market for ganes outside of home market and despite some very vocal advocates, not every one is going to get DirectTV. ABC now is selling CURRENT season online.
From email:
ABC will offer four prime-time shows including "Desperate Housewives" and "Lost" on its Web site for free for two months beginning in May as it continues to expand the ways consumers can watch TV online.
The shows will include advertising that cannot be skipped over during viewing. ABC, which is owned by The Walt Disney Co., already offers ad-free episodes for $1.99 each on Apple Computer Inc. (AAPL)'s iTunes store.
The experiment comes as networks try to reach viewers who watch less TV in prime-time and are embracing technology that lets them watch shows on computers and portable devices, such as an iPod.
I think this model would do well for games. Make games available Tuesday thru Friday night so fans could watch games they missed on weekends.
