Pick One Now: TV Or Internet?

from the this-is-scientific? dept

In one of the more stupid polls I've seen in a while, someone is asking people which they would rather give up: TV or the Internet. TV is winning by a bit, as a few more people would ditch the internet, but it's still pretty close to 50/50. I started to think about this myself, and then realized that it's completely pointless.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Definitely TV.

    I already live fine without TV. Why do I need it? I get the news as it happens on the Internet. And the Internet is also a great source of any other kind of information. In a year or two, when I get broadband, I'll be able to watch TV-quality video over the Internet. Does that count as TV?
