ABSTRACT
Traditional concerns about the impact of television on the long distance links in the Internet are unjustified. The convergence of TV and the Internet is likely to be slower and take a path different from the one normally envisioned. There are various definitions of Internet television. (See Egan, 1996; Noll, chaps. 1 and 3 in this vol.; Owen, 1999.) But, the precise one does not matter much for the purposes of this chapter.
