POLL for All My Children and One Life to Live fans?

With All My Children having put indefinately on hold, what do you think are the LONG-TERM futures of All My Children and One Life to Live?

1) All My Children and One Life to Live will both eventually be online. (One Life to Live first, and All My Children later).

2) One Life to Live will eventually be online. But All My Children is never coming back.

3) Both All My Children and One Life to Live are done permanently after their life on ABC.

Update:

I didn't forget it Zoril. I voluntarily didn't include it because I know such scenario will never happen (although they say that one should never say never)

    3.) I HOPE I'm wrong. But even the most conservative estimate says they need $42.5 million to launch one soap opera. Where is "Prospect Park" going to get that kind of money? It's not even clear these guys have internet access. Also, they said if they have "one-tenth" the viewers that AMC and OLTL had, they'd make a profit. OK, OLTL and AMC has about 2.5 million viewers. Yet Rosie's new talk show had only 182,000 last week. And that's on cable. Cable has more viewers than internet tv shows. And honestly, even though I'm a fan of both tv shows, I don't see myself watching a tv show online. If it was on cable, yes, I'd probably watch it. But not online. And I'm only 25 years old. Imagine what older soap viewers think of online viewing. And like someone else said, even if OLTL online did happen, I can't imagine it would last very long, anyway. Again, I HOPE I'm wrong. I really do....

    I agree with James. 2 is the most likely at this point in time, although I really desperately hope for 1. I am a HUGE fan of AMC, but in all honesty, I really don't think that it will end up online at all. Being a fan though, I'm just gonna hope and pray for the best and pretend like AMC will have a chance to be online! It's apparently supposed to start January 16th, 2012. *fingers crossed*

    2) OLTL will air online January 2012, but AMC will never come back. The only company to purchase AMC's rights was Prospect Park, but now they have confirmed they arent going to air the show and are only focusing on OLTL. To be honest I dont even think OLTL will last more then a year on the web, and I say this because history isnt on their side when it comes to this situation. Only once in televesion history has a show been cancelled only to air on the web (Passions in 2008), and even then Passions lasted 8 months before being cancelled again.

    I choose I made extra constructive judgements interior the previous. If that have been to take place, i does no longer have a foul determination in friends, i may be in a extra constructive academic instiute, i may be a splash extra financially stable, and that i might nevertheless be with my ex lady chum. Too undesirable all that's impossible.
