it'd be a pretty nice service to be able to watch any prime time show on demand, even if you then have to put up with commercials
Fortunately there are other DVR options, especially involving off-air HDTV, which allow for fast forwarding through commercials. We've even gotten used to watching DVR-ed programs 15 minutes into the show so we can skip the commercials.

Cable and satellite companies need to understand that commercial skipping is a must in any DVR. We as subscribers are paying to watch these ads, and as a result, we should be able to fast forward through them like any other content.

depending on costs, it'd be a pretty nice service to be able to watch any prime time show on demand, even if you then have to put up with commercials
