Woot woot.

The difference is that in this case, only time was lost, not money. In a gameserver's case, you're losing money if you're not getting any players. In TV's case, you're losing money if you're not getting any viewers. I daresay that that dodgy move by some people had actually increased TV viewage for a while.

Im sure the FCC fine they got for that was drastically more than a gamespy server loss. It doesn't matter if they weren't the cause of it, they are responsible for every broadcast they make.
