Yeah I'll second this. As a 30 year old with no tv subscription I'm much more likely to come across a programs YouTube stream than to be randomly scrolling through a tv guide. I agree that tv is still ideal for older viewers and more importantly to be shown in bars and public venues, but the future of broadcasting is online.

And THEY bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh, this is a Nazi bar now. And its too late because they’re entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.
