Re: All this is really gonna do... said by anon30099988 :Is force the stations to run ads at the bottom 1/3 of the tv full time during the show instead of 1/2 the time as they do now. Yep and all the people that think TV is a right and should be both cost free and ad free will really complain but they'll just have themselves to blame. I mean jeez just take shit or get a snack while the commercial is on and no one is the wiser. |

It might have once held this position, but the 1970's are long past and there are more diversions on the net than conceived of in your limited philosophy.
The industry is mired in the past where all comm was one way. It is now vastly more complex and to survive, the industry will need to adapt. Trying to distract from the real problem at the core of all this will have limited efficacy and will ultimately leave the current players stymied to such an extent that they will not be able to make the leaps they will need to make as time goes forward.

The industry seems to think that making people watch their crap when and how they say is THEIR right and that they have the right to take as much money as they see fit for it.
They need a wake up call. I hope DISH phones it in.
