"America Online Inc and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. are planning to put thousands of episodes of once-popular television shows like Welcome Back Kotter and Chico and the Man on the AOL.com Web site, where high-speed Internet users can view them for free. The new In2TV service is set to launch in January and will include episodes of more than 100 shows," reports The Washington Post.
"Company officials, scheduled to announce the service today, said the shows will be available on demand, meaning computer users who search six new Web-based television channels on AOL.com will be able to choose when they watch the shows and which episodes to view. The companies, both part of media giant Time Warner Inc, will profit by sharing revenue from advertising, including banner ads and four 15-second streaming video ads per 30-minute episode."
