Anyone else see where this is going... (Score 2, Insightful)

It seems pretty obvious to me that as things continue on the current trend that it won't be too much longer that "videocasting" and the like will start to upset the right people in TV and Cable land . I could easily see that the only thing you have to pay for is bandwidth (which is enough in and of itself) and anyone with a server, the bandwidth, and a video camera could start "broadcasting" their show over the internet. Commercial (I know of the free ones as well, but that is another topic entirely) products like "Windows Media Center" that are sold in stores will make it so that the average user can now watch Star Trek New Voyages on their TV. If you want your fan films to show up, you just have to plug into their API and WAMO! you've got a million viewers (certian assumptions made...like its worth watching). I think the "numa-numa" kid, and the jedi-kid prove that this is where things are heading. The real question is, how much kicking and screaming will the "traditional" broadcasting folk make? or will they jump on the bandwagon?
