Saw the news story on TechTV Live about a new process to reduce duplicate frames from movies/TV in order to allow broadcasters to put in more commercials.

He says the device is completely programmable, meaning TV stations can make sure ads run in full, while duplicate frames are removed from the program itself.
See? The only thing they respect is the commercials, not the programs. Just go all commercials then! I hate this sort of thing.

Pardon me for pointing out the obvious but...
..since when has television ever been about anything except the commercials? That's why it was started, that's why it continues to prosper today. The content on television is there merely to sell advertising; it has been that way since the very beginning and there is no reason to think it will ever change.
