I have to second this. My children 5 and 3, have no concept of commercials at all. We have had Tivo and ny MythTV since they were born. They seldom (once a month or less) watch commercials and get very frustrated when they are on. Add this to satelite radio in the car and they have zero concept of commecials. While this may be a negative for the advertizing companies, it is a positive as a parent. My children only see what I feel is appropriate and they do not see "super destructo man" in commercials. I was raised on violent TV and targeted advertizing, I am not saying it is bad and it has not turned me into a bad person, but I do feel that giving kids a chance to not grow up with this crap is a good thing.
<br><br>Maybe in the future my contribution to MythTV will to expand on the kid friendlyness, perhaps a new theam, and maybe something along the lines of what has been done with Tivo and KidsZone.<br><br>-Jake<br><br><br>

I can see my new one on the way asking this in a few years. Right now<br>my 4 year old loves to watch stuff (via Myth) and always gets me<br>whenever I forget to cut out the commercials. She can't stand for a<br>commercial to interrupt her Scooby-Doo.
