DISQUS

    One can't blame NBC alone for their failed relationship with Apple. However, if I understand correctly, it seems to me they're getting a little greedy and want to maintain a model where they get payed multiple times for the same content. Once for watching it temporarily like television, then another time for 'owning' the media like DVD.

    I know many people who just buy series on DVD and don't watch them at all on television any more. You're right they're not paying attention to how people want to consume their media, they're only seeing possible short term revenue.

    Don't forget to boycott ALL NBCU products: Bravo (reality 24/7...yuck), MSNBC, Universal Film, Universal Television Studios, and recently acquired Oxygen (good luck Lauren!).
