Re: Why Bother?
said by ackman  :Free is still crap if you have to waste time sitting through commercials. I don't have time to sit through 20 minutes of commercials in a one hour program. Given the choice, I'll not use a DVR, I'll miss the entire show, and I'll certainly miss the commercials. So, in the end, how does disabling the commercial-skip help the advertisers in my case? Doesn't. Hopefully others will govern their decisions similarly when it comes to the cable company controlling what you watch in your own home. Well, you need to compromise... | |

I compromised when I bought the Tivo and when I paid for the Tivo service. | |
