AOL.Com To Offer Vintage TV Shows For Free... No Skipping Ads...
The Wall Street Journal:
As major broadcast networks begin offering some of their hottest programs via video-on-demand, AOL and Warner Bros. have a new weapon of their own -- "Welcome Back, Kotter."
In the latest sign that the rules of television are being turned on their head, the two divisions of Time Warner Inc. have formed a partnership to offer "vintage" shows, including "Kotter," "Wonder Woman" and "Kung Fu," free online. The venture is believed to be the first time a major TV studio has made prime-time entertainment programs available over the Internet at no charge.
