[mythtv-users] commercials

[Dean Collins]

I know most mythtv users implemented myth to get away from commercials
but I thought this  post might interest the group - unfortunately you'll
need a browser to watch the show but worth watching.

 


Cheers,
Dean

Check out this cool television concept from Australia

No I haven't had a chance to watch the ABC television series yet but
looks cool - what a great concept.

"As of last night, 6100 spoof ads had been edited, scripted and uploaded
to the website by viewers of The Gruen Transfer, the 10-part series
which has been watched by more than 1 million viewers each week.

The number of ads made for a range of fictional products - a beer, an
anti-ageing cream and a bank - and the number of times they have been
watched, 280,000, has surprised ABC programming chiefs."

Anyone want to set the wheels in motion for a USA based version? Looks
like the perfect concept for Current?
