I would expect more eyeballs to be watching TV, if only because there  
are more eyeballs in Australia than ever before, and certainly since  
2000. The article you refer to sounds interesting. And I'd be even  
more interested to know what demographic studies show: all the young  
'uns I know exclusively use the 'net for moving pictures these days,  
apart from seeing a movie once in a while on the big screen. Perhaps  
it is different in regional outposts like Canberra.
