The Legend of Digital Distribution



Well there is always a first time for everything.........


not too long ago when BBC iplayer  was booted unceremoniously in to the world every tn network stud there and said "its not going to last a year" But here we are now in 2014 and every network as a on demand player.

How ever as the saying goes you can not teach an old dog new tricks, and all the content for the on demand has always been shown on TV first then moved on to the networks internet side............ that is until Netflix came out and said where making the content that can only bee seen on the web TV's response so far nothing .
Until today when nickelodeon was about to end Avatat the legend of Korra its TV ratings less than stellar for what it was expecting to get mostly down to its time slot. But rather be thrown in to the pit of cancellation it looks like the audience online has saved it. so the final 5 episodes have been removed from the time slot to be shown online. While Korra fans may worry that this news signals an imminent cancellation, it should be noted that Nickelodeon has already ordered a fourth season.


so maybe at last the industry may finally recognize the internet is now a thing they have to deal with
