Steven Lake is right: the publishers will wait until money is running out of their pockets before they'll change. Do you think Universal & Fox launched Hulu because they desperately wanted to convenience their viewers who'd missed shows on the air? Hellz no! They did it to compete with YouTube, where their product was being posted without their consent, and with no money coming into their pockets.
The publishers will follow the music & tv industry model: wait until it's obvious that consumers will find their digital products without their consent, then belatedly offer their wares in the digital format.
