Question by AppleGoddess: Do you think an online television network would work?
I am interested in starting an online TV network type site for indie and lesser known filmmakers, bands, etc. How well do you think this would work? Any other ideas or tips?
Thanks.

The main issues you will need to deal with are:
* Bandwidth … many potential customers have PCs modems ISPs etc. that can’t handle a lot of stuff that is in the marketplace
* Suitability for children … if you accept material that is unsuitable for children, you have to figure out how to enforce the blocking of the under 18 v.s if you want to block such stuff from being on your site, there’s how to do so legally with minimum of legal hassles
* Copyright … protecting yourself legally if one of the suppliers of the media is not the legal copyright holder
