90% of 2009-2010 broadcast TV was on Internet

These numbers do not represent reality,as they do not account for illegal viewing:

• “90% of shows became available online
• 50% of episodes came online within a day of their original air date
• 60% of episodes went offline within three weeks of their original air date . . .
• of the 4,420 broadcast episodes that graced the Web for free during the 2009-10 season,over 90% (3,980) were later removed. (Note that Netflix,Amazon and iTunes have many of these available online behind pay-walls,which we include in our Clicker search results) 60% of these episodes were taken down within three weeks of being published,while over 90% of them came down within six weeks. Sometimes the episodes will come back online,but there’s no clearly set pattern to predict exactly which will return when.”—Clicker.com
