We are talking about people that use the internet to watch television. I sincerely don't think that people who prefer to sit down in their living room and turn on their widescreen are going to be persuaded to give that up so that can watch it on their laptop. Case in point, illegal streaming is available for virtually every program in the world and yet, I doubt you have ever hooked up your laptop to your television to watch it this way. In my opinion, free online streaming would have very little impact on CI subscriptions because as they are now, because free online streaming already exists. At least this way, the NHL would get in on the action.
I think the real issue here is that for those of you that subscribe, you are so fixated on the idea that you would be paying so that people like me could watch for free. That's not the case.
