According to a report from AdAge, every single network drama that aired on Tuesday night experienced a double-digit decline in ratings. And aside from a decent showing from The Muppets, the report relays that there have been few bright spots to the start of this year's fall TV lineup.
[...] All told, cumulative viewership during "Premiere Week", as it's called, is down 8% compared to the same period a year-ago. More worrisome for TV networks is that viewership from the highly sought-after 18-24 demographic is down 20% year over year, with male viewership within that demographic falling by 24%.
Males in the 18-24 demographic are the most coveted in advertising because that's when studies show brand preferences are formed. 24% is a catastrophic decline for TV.

I've got 7 TB storage on my network, I'm using maybe 500 gig (mostly MP3s). I think I can handle Gunsmoke :)
I can't believe I've got 7 TB (2 laptops and a NAS), when I think I started with a 16k TRS-80 and a cassette deck it boggles my mind.

Ditto here. All those years ago, I thought the "Trash 80" was awesome. Then they came up with those newfangled floppy drives, then a hard drive - it just never ends . . .
