The business model problem is that they can't monetize content from another provider -- unless they have a deal, which they won't have. So their business depends on them being able to get enough content directly. Not easy. I would not assume they have an agreement with YouTube, I would assume the opposite.

People are creatures of habit; they like to know every Thursday at 8:30 there will be an episode of the office. They also like the fact that there is produced content, which is selected by intelligent people that have put some thought into what they are watching. The Internet could learn something from TV, instead being the smug bunch of "Mac Guys" running around the world saying they have the answer to everything. Take for instance the Digg.com, it is produced content, same with slashdot.org these are huge sites that focus in topics that someone has decided rightly or wrongly will be of some interest to their audience. I would like site to adopt more of a time slot method of delivery for special content. Why not have every Thursday at noon on techcrunch a specific, repeatable and interesting item people could tune in to. If they missed it they could go and get it on Friday morning. It doesn't always have to be new. This idea of killing the TV and getting rid off timeslots to distribute content will never work.
