An interesting number from an interview with Disney's CEO on CNBC....they have served 160 million episodes through their advertising supported streams on abc.com over the last year. This compares to the 100 million episodes that Apple just reported for iTunes across all of their content providers.

JMO, but I ultimately see advertising supported content winning out against the pay per view model. Of course, the final piece to the puzzle will be moving the content from the PC to the TV. Hopefully, ABC/Disney will allow Apple to enable Apple TV to eventually provide this feature.
