Sorry. I thought the sarcasm was obvious. Guess not.
It was blatantly obvious. However, I find it more entertaining when people take sarcasm seriously.

I forsee a world in which, how much you pay monthly depends on how many ads you fast forward through. This is the bad thing about digital. It can think. It knows if my display is HDCP or not, it knows if I'm fast forwarding through commercials.

You used to be able to fast forward through the commercials at the beginning of a movie you paid $20 for, now some DVDs make it impossible to skip over. Sad stuff.
