Well, times are changing... I like to record shows, edit out the commercials, then binge watch series. No wonder they are losing money - heh. Make that a nation wide practice and you’ve got major network problems...
Oh well, TV has become so bad with content and at least 1/3 of a show dedicated to commercials that it eventually drives away viewers to other venues - then they complain about viewership? Reality is finally catching up because of the millions that they pay for each show. They will have to lower prices per show, rethink content, and limit advertisers if they even want to continue as a viable on air business.
It does sadden me though that all of the money I’ve invested in DVR equipment and utility programs will be useless in a few short years! Oh well...
Netflix has a lot of shows with the commercials already edited out.
