A strictly layman's view.

I think it will eventually be all about eyeballs. How many people can cable TV reach. How many viewers can a programmer reach using cable...or satellite?

How many subscribers has Facebook got?

I'm guessing that most producers and distributors of the media (movies/TV) are going to look at the number of people they can potentially reach using what the alternatives are and eventually move just about everything to the internet. If or when the delivery structure will technically allow it.

There will probably have to be a lot of jiggering of FCC regulations etc before this will happen, but I'll bet that the potential to reach the most people will be a major factor. It's going to be all about audience size and $.

How that affects subscriber fees is anybody's guess.

[I]Verizon is finally ready to acknowledge that cable TV just isn't working for a lot of us anymore.
The company is planning to launch its Internet-based TV service that can be watched on mobile devices in the "late first half of 2015," Lowell McAdam, Verizon's CEO, [URL='http://online.wsj.com/articles/verizon-ceo-eyes-digital-video-service-by-mid-2015-1410467151']said at a Goldman Sachs investor conference[/URL] in New York on Thursday.
