I believe there is a tremendous potential for disruption on TV, the same way anybody can make a living selling software using Internet, anybody should be able to sell their documentary, films, or TV episodes using it without too much middlemen.
It is already happening, but it will take some years, bandwidth has to be cheaper and the economic models have to be tested.
Remember Apple App Store learned a lot from Lindows-Linspire click and run, apt-get, yum and other experiments that tested software distribution in the millions of users way before Apple did.
