"Larry Jones, president of Nick at Nite and TV Land, said he's not worried (AOL's) In2TV will erode the audience of his networks any more than the recent boom in classic TV shows on DVDs did. Though he says In2TV is an 'interesting experiment,' he added that his networks provide a valuable service by acting as filter.
'We pick the best of the best from multiple studios,' he said. 'I don't know if viewers are ready for so much choice. Ultimately what [In2TV] does is force viewers to be their own programmers.'"
