Well, AOL may not be making movies available for download like I just ranted about 10 minutes ago, but thousands of TV episodes from some of the most popular television series of all time will make a comeback exclusively on AOL.com in early 2006, thanks to a pioneering collaboration between AOL and Warner Bros. Domestic Cable Distribution to form a new broadband network. The network– called In2TV – will showcase full-length episodes from favorite series such as Welcome Back Kotter, Sisters, Beetlejuice, Lois & Clark, La Femme Nikita and Growing Pains free and on-demand on the Web. I googled "In2TV" and only a MSN Groups link appeared. Wonder if there will be a lawsuit over the name?
I wonder what TVLand, the "classic TV station" has to say about this AOL news offering "free" classic TV episodes? Also, woefully neglected from this free download list is Dukes of Hazzard, Knight Rider, Star Trek, the A-Team, and all other cool TV series.
Of course, Star Trek still is being succesfully re-run on the Sci-Fi channel so they no doubt pay licensing rights, which eventually ends up in Captain Kirk's pocket (as well as the other actors/actresses). So it might be a long time before Star Trek is ever a "free" download on the Internet.

Nice - a search for "watch classic episodes" brought me here.
I have to agree it will be some time before Star Trek is made available online (well legally anyway).
Only problem with in2TV is its lack of support for anything not Microsoft.
