Strangely enough this is not a completely new venture for Apple as they have tried this in the past unsuccesfully:

Possibly even though the premise was there people were not ready for this new idea from Apple. So what has changed in the past fourteen years to make Apple Tv a possible success? Not only have people changed but the ability to acces new media has vastly differed from what was a achievable a mere 10 years ago. Streaming movies and television shows is easy. South park for example has gained a huge cult following on the internet with people posting every single episode they have ever done on one internet site:

Yet even with south parks dwindling ratings due to everyone being able to watch whenever they want and not at the peak times that tv company's need, it is still on air. So could this soon mean all tv is available on the internet and it will be all about entertaining and finding financial succes in other means. Comedy shows like Little Britain and Mighty Boosh have done extensive theatre tours finding sell out crowds could this be a solution?
