So in other words someone found out how to charge me even MORE money for my cable service.

If it wasn’t for my wife and son I would have cancelled it years ago.

Oh, I suppose it wouldn't be a bad idea if it was voluntary and only applied to live content (watch the movie with no commercials for $4.99 or include commercials and it's free, or something in between ($1.99 for commercials at only the beginning and the end.) Now if they tried to stick on on recorded DVR content where you had to watch the commercials everytime you played something back or pay, I would PO’ed.

I’m just a quick decision away from canceling cable in the first place. This would certainly end it for me.

Technology can be used for evil! Of course I do wonder how commercials help their companies since I don’t watch them.

TiVo is a blessing for us...we get to record any and everything we want to watch...watch it at our leisure and zip right through any of the commercials.

We only intentionally watch commercials at the SuperBowl, although this year's crop was pathetic.
