People expect everything to be immediate because that is what they have got used to. And unfortunately for the entertainment corporations, if they don't provide what people want immediately then someone else will come along and do it for them. The UK TV companies have started to wise up to that, and now we get to see major USA programmes within 24 hours of their foreign broadcast. Whereas before the internet and unauthorised downloads we usually had to wait a year or more.
