[mythtv-users] [OT] Study proves skipping commercials make TV less enjoyable

I think this is highly individual.  I hate commercials.  I always watch
programs straight through without pausing if no one needs to answer the
door, phone, use the restroom, etc.  I always watch movies straight
through.  And, I'm only 26.  I'm pretty sick of this whole "kids these days
have no attention span".  I think some don't and some do.  Even before the
Internet and Computers, my cousins couldn't watch an entire TV show.  My
in-laws fall asleep watching TV.  But if I start watching a program, I have
to see it through to the end if it is the least bit interesting.

But getting back to the topic - I enjoy TV a LOT more without commercials.
Now that I've canceled cable and watch Hulu - I'm so annoyed that I have to
watch commercials again.  And, often, it's the same commercial over and over
each break....
