If you want better than DSLR quality, you're not going to find it for less than $60,000. The only camera south of $80,000 that can produce results better than a DSLR is called the RED Epic.

The cameras mentioned earlier are your best bet for quality approaching that of DSLR.

It's not a major waste spending $18k on high-end internet footage. The better the source footage, the better the final product is... it just comes down to what you want. I stream Netflix to a 46" TV, which qualifies as "internet content"... and unless you're shooting with some sort of ARRI or RED, you won't be able to approach that level - online or anywhere.
