Two separate research studies, from Magna Global and Leichtman Research Group in Durham, N.H., show that the online video craze isn't nearly as big as it sometimes seems. And more significant to advertisers, it's having no effect on TV viewing.
Kids are actually watching more TV, not less, even with the multitude of other options, including iPods, videogames and online video, according to the Magna study.
