Among other greats from my childhood (yes I was eight in 1978 and I was sorta in love with Johnny Fever) are old episodes of WKRP now watchable any time on Hulu.com.

It’s amazing what the people at Hulu are doing.  In my opinion this is the first view into a viable future of video on the Web.

I’m fond of this clip from the show - think how far we’ve come…in such a short time. I mean we were still splicing tape only 15 years ago.

(and I cut this clip from the entire episode on Hulu - they allow you to cut ins and outs right there on the site.)

Do you really think information can be treated as the same sort of commodity as transportation?

io9 publishes this prediction for print in a digital world made by ex-Conde Nast  editorial director, James  Truman.
