The new study indicates that households with Internet access watch, on average, 13% less television than those households that are not online. That works out to an estimated 32 hours less of television viewing monthly per household.

- I can listen to CDs while I'm online. I can't listen to CDs while I'm watching TV. I'm very passionate about my music.
-... but that's kind of a moot point, since I don't have a TV. I'm vaguely thinking about getting a tuner card, though... the line between being online and dealing with passive media is starting to get fuzzier. As it is, I hardly ever listen to true radio, but I do regularly listen to RealAudio broadcasts.
- Lots of people have already made this point, but 8 hours of TV watched per home, with an average of 2.5 people/home (guess) is somewhat over 3 hours per person. I'd buy that.
