Full FeedTBS gives gift to Seinfeld fans, episodes now being streamed
Many TV stations are working hard to make popular shows available for streaming on their site, a bunch have already used this technology, and now TBS is going to do it with popular show, Seinfeld. TBS already has Family Guy episodes up for streaming on their website. Since many people manage to get videos, or TV shows illegally, these stations loose a lot of potential revenue. By making shows available to be streamed, they are gaining a bit of that lost revenue back, plus it isn’t illegal.
No word on exactly how many ads TBS will run during a streamed show, or how long that ad would run for. I’m guessing there won’t be too many ads and they won’t be for that long, because TBS has to compete with other giant streaming sites, such as Hulu. Basically, out of the many Seinfeld shows available, TBS will only run 4 streams at a time, and change them randomly over time. So far it looks like a good idea, I think they should make all Seinfeld episodes available for streaming, instead of having only 4 available at a time.
Unfortunately, you have to be running Windows for this to work, there isn’t any Mac support for these streams as of yet. If you like Seinfeld, I’m sure you’ll be happy.
