Because it notifies me 2 seconds before the start of the commercial 
break, so I have time to pick up the remote, allowing me--remote in 
hand--to skip the commercial immediately upon the end of the show.  
Saves me (reaction_time * num_breaks_per_show) I watch.

However, more to the point, I need Tom to test whether he sees the 
effect of changing the setting to notify to see whether any change to 
that setting is visible.  This will give me more information to try to 
help figure out where the breakage he reported occurs (his 
configuration/database, MythTV code, etc.).
