The site already has some enthusiastic buzz around it, and what with the popularity of TV and IPTV, NewTeeVee´s covering hot property. People love online videos; IPTV may just kill the television industry.

The blog threads are interesting and pretty far reaching as far as TV on the internet goes, but will people be that enthused about reading rather than watching? The success of the internet tube is due to the incredible ease of whiling away hours watching anything and everything, no real thought needed; do people necessarily want to read about the Digital Millennium Copyright Act or Hilary ‘84?
