According to a poll we conducted last week, Mashable readers are using a wide variety of ways to get access to top-shelf television programming, including Hulu, Netflix and even (gasp!) Regular old television sets with cable, satellite and/or network channels.

But our readers' favorite non-traditional way to get TV shows (by a nose) was illegal torrent downloading. While we won't call the FBI on you just yet, you naughty people, we will get into more detail about the results of this poll and their implications in the broader world of television, entertainment and online content distribution. Ours was a multiple-selection poll, which means that readers could select any number of options while voting. For example, if you watch House on your TV set, The Office on Hulu and Mad Men via Netflix, you could select all three of those options in the poll. The results of the poll show that 28.56% of the votes we counted were for traditional TV. A Word on Torrents Non-Traditional Television. Gawker Founder: The Future of Online Media Is Video. At Monday's IAB Mixx conference in New York, Gawker Media Founder Nick Denton took the stage with AllThingsD's Peter Kafka to discuss the future of the blogging network — and that future is all about images and video.

"People don't really want to read text," Denton said. "They want videos, they want images, bigger, more lavish. " In other words, consumers are looking for online media products that more closely resemble TV and magazines. Denton cited Gizmodo's notorious leak of the iPhone 4 as an example, which quadrupled traffic for the blog that week. Text, he contended, is more useful for providing context and explanation for more visual kinds of media, rather than serving as the primary medium itself.

Gawker's eight media properties are currently undergoing a redesign to accommodate better delivery of image and video-based content. Since video is generally expensive to produce, Gawker staff will concentrate on finding and curating available video to embed on the site. Qik | Record and share video live from your mobile phone.
