Yeah, because what the industry needs is to be homoginized. Killing off smaller sites will mean more large sites, and the shit that feeds them... TGPs and other purely sponsor-oriented. Let's see how well the business does when there is haldf as much content and the viewer base is growing.

Surfers found sites BEFORE TGP's came along. They did so through search engines and review sites (like Jane's Guide). That kind of traffic is gold, and you don't have to give away (and devalue) content in order to get it.
There is nothing wrong with having "a small site," but a site that doesn't really even care if it makes money (and therefor isn't ready to risk anything because it doesn't have to) is not good for the industry.
