I’ve seen Byron’s other “.tv” networks (Comedy.tv, Recipe.tv, etc). I don’t believe very many people watch them. They seem to just take up space.

This one could have more potential than the others if they put some serious effort into it. The OTA distribution could help. Would be a good idea to replace one of the others with this new network as well. Would allow for quick distribution on cable (Particularly on systems that do not carry sub channels and in markets without an affiliate)
