cry me a river

Oh cry me a river network execs. I've been skipping commercials since I first got a DVR back in 2005/2006.

Push 30sec skip 5 or 6 times and you should be good.

So what this is automatic but
1) user has to enable it
2) it doesn't work until after 1 AM the next day.

Re: cry me a river

You're the only one who will be crying a river when previously skippable advertisements start being integrated INTO your programming to defeat this and your cable bill triples.

Go from an era of vast quantities of cheap, entertaining crap that most can afford to watch to an era of small quantities of expensive, entertaining crap that few can afford to watch.

This ad-free future sure is sounding awesome.

Re: cry me a river

Small quantities of stuff I want to watch ad-free vs large amounts of ad-laden crap I never watch anyway does actually sound pretty good.

And if they price it poorly just won't need to watch it at all.

Re: cry me a river

If you're having to watch ads right now, you're doing it wrong.

Re: cry me a river

I don't watch the ads, and think that nobody should be forced to watch ads on recordings on their own time.

And, yes, you are.
