Re: Greedy bastards, they don't even provide the a
So if we would leave the tv on all day our bill would get smaller, even if someone was not watching it? I don't think so.... This call came about in the digital cable/sat age, and these damn boxes track just about everything you do. So in the end they don't get the audience for their commercials, boo hoo, we really didn't want to see them anyway, they were already paid for the channels, get over it, and stop counting your piles of money while wishing you could have more.
I don't watch much tv, as a matter of fact I only have the free local broadcast channels at this time, but the few shows I like to watch are better if I don't have wade through the commercials, even my vcr records shows with automatic commercial skip which works 95% of the time so I don't even have to fast forward/resume.
If I really like a show, I actually buy the seasons to watch when I want to, they are like mini movies, and you get many of them for the price of 3 normal dvd movies or less usually.
