"Junkies of Internet are junkies of media in general, especially television," said Rimer. "TV users are typically more likely to use the Internet in very large amounts. We believe there is a correlation between heavy TV users and heavy Internet users. As the Internet matures and more bandwidth becomes available, the correlation will increase, because the experience on the Internet will not only more additive to television, but it will also be a more immersive."

All those beautiful dreams we had about building a global community? It's over. Go back to your lives, citizens, 'cause we're in for another wave of lame L.A. inspired trash, delivered faster. Oh well, it had so much promise while it lasted...

Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
