SAN FRANCISCO — Online video is replacing television for consumers 25 years and younger as part of a dramatic demographic shift.  Watching video on a personal computer is becoming the principal way young adults consumer video. On Tuesday, I spoke with Adobe business development chief Bill Rusitzky. For many young adults 25 and under, there is a greatly diminished interest in watching television as video consumption is shifting dramatically to the PC, he told me. He says that as this population grows, there will be a big change in media consumption patterns over the next ten years. While the nascent online video industry is figuring out business models, a big demographic shift is on our side.
