		<description>Dearme - 

By 2013 there will only be a couple of &#039;Emergency Broadcast&#039; systems operating.  They will beam short, informational and survival-type messages directly into a small receiver installed into your cerebral cortex.

Of course there will be only a few hundred thousand people who will receive these broadcasts, as 99% of the population will be wiped out in the &#039;Great Conflagration of 12-21-2012, and most of them will be living in the sides of mountains scraping for food water and gasoline.

At least according to the screenplay I am thinking of writing.

The working title is &#039;Highway Warrior&#039; with a lead character named &#039;Mad Mac&#039;.

Seriously, though... the major networks are aligning themselves with major cable networks os as to exert more control over our widening choices.  When, not how or where will be the thing as Robert and Bill have pointed out.

10 years seems like a good number, but remember, we were supposed to have flying cars and colonies on the moon by now.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not sure of the timing -- 10 years ago I thought &quot;most people&quot; would have a DVR by now, and I&#039;m not sure that gets to 51% by even next year (as it was only 21% at the beginning of *this* year). 

While I don&#039;t think anyone will ever chose to watch all of their television on a 3.5 inch device, it&#039;s when and not if as far as people routinely watching video on portable devices someday goes.</description>

		<description>dearme, I think that the audience will continue to fracture. Over the last 25 years that has mostly meant a shift from broadast to cable. I think that shift will continue as the quality difference between broadcast and cable continues to narrow [from both directions].
The next shifts will be both time and place. Where and when you choose to watch &quot;video&quot;. Robert is at the absolute bleeding edge with the amount of TV he watches on his iPhone, but 10 years from now I think what he does will be pretty typical.</description>

		<description>DearMe -- I think the &quot;living room never goes out of style&quot;, but I enjoy watching things on my iPhone on a 3.5&quot; screen and the resolution is AWESOME.  

I agree there will be a huge DVR surge, but over 10 years, I don&#039;t know whether a.) that actually benefits ANY of the television networks or b.) whether over a longer timeline it benefits broadcast networks more than other networks.</description>

		<description>6 million would be the live audience and a minority but EVERYONE would be recording the show even if they don&#039;t really wanna watch it. I think with DVR becoming pervasive, there would be huge surge in audience numbers. And internet in no way can replace the quality of TV screen. If people are looking for interactivity then set-top boxes in atleast UK already have those features.</description>

		<description>there will technically be broadcast television for as long as you can receive the signal via antenna -- and this is not going away, at least any time soon (or in 10 years).

But if the trend holds, the broadcast networks will have less and less cumulative share of overall viewing to the point where it&#039;s as relevant to talk about USA, ESPN and other cable networks as it is to talk about the broadcast networks.  The broadcast networks are losing viewers, especially young viewers. They hold on to the older viewers, but over time, us old folks will quite literally..die off.</description>

		<description>@Dearme, I think in some fashion unscripted shows are here to stay.  Whatever the ratings declines may be, I&#039;d guess that American Idol, Dancing With the Stars, Survivor, Hell&#039;s Kitchen, Moment of Truth and Extreme Makeover Home Edition, and of course Sunday Night Football will all likely be around next year.</description>

		<description>@Roop, is correct in terms of the &quot;scoreboard&quot;, though the show table was fine. the graphic logos for NBC and ABC in the &quot;scoreboard&quot; were reversed. Fixed and thanks!</description>
