How TV is becoming entertainment for old people

The Washington Post reports:

Studies show nearly one in four millennials has either cut the cord to cable or never had it in the first place. Of all “cord nevers,” as media analysts call them, nearly 30 percent are between the ages of 18 and 34. Millennials watch around 44 percent of their television on the Internet. Already, 10 million American homes have Internet access, but not cable.

A generational divide over the very meaning of “television” has emerged. For high school students, it may mean YouTube. For millennials: Netflix. For mom and dad: perhaps the networks, the Weather Channel and maybe PBS.

The a la carte world is emerging.
