‘American Idol’ to stream entire shows
Cory Bergman January 7th, 2007
Coming later this month, you’ll be able to watch full streams of American Idol on AmericanIdol.com after the show airs on Fox. Interestingly, Ad Age reports that Freemantle Media, which produces Idol, was close to signing last year with a major portal to host and produce its web presence — which would have been a major loss for Fox, which currently produces the site. One more interesting factoid: Freemantle has counted 32,000 Idol clips on YouTube. (Via PaidContent)

Interestingly, Reality Blurred notes that this is all about having an additional venue for selling ads, instead of being an additional way for fans to keep up with the show.
