What would you guys think about American Idol opening an online voting system? Pretty cool right? NO!
Here’s the story: There is speculation about Idol wanting to start up a system where you can vote online. This will start up in season 10, obviously. But, it’s just a rumor, since Fox had no comment about it.
This might be cool for allot of people… (who don’t have phones?). I’m not sure, but I don’t think this online voting thing will help out Idols credibility for how the voting system currently works. Think of how much crap Dancing With The Stars got for supposedly “Hacking” the voting for Bristol Palin. It’s already rumored that Idol rigs up the votes in the direction they want anyway.
This may be cool for people that are online all the time, like me. And since this may just be American Idols LAST season, I suppose they can do whatever they want and not give a crap. However, I just think it will be more things for people to rag on about. Not only that, those voting systems are very easily manipulated. Just use a Proxy (if they limit you). Duh!
What do you guys think? Do you think online voting would be cool for Idol? Or would it be completely retarded?

Yeah, it would be cool if they actually limited the amount of votes and made it legit. But that won’t happen. And I’m one of those conspiracy theorists who thinks the whole thing is rigged.

The votes by Internet, text message and phone call for DWTS is limited to so many per person. If it works for Dancing With the Stars, why not use it for Idol, too?

I think it’ll be stupid to do that. Th voting system is crap anyway. Idol is screwed up, and that won’t make it better.
