Roll my own or get rid of it. There's no point in a DVR that I have to watch commericals. |

So the convenience of watching TV on your own schedule is pointless? I think not. I don't even watch TV (I cannot remember the last time I turned the TV on for a tv show in at least 10-15 years) and I know this. Hell, my mom has not watched commercials if she's paying attention to the TV for YEARS. At least two decades. If it wasn't DVR it was VCR.
And frankly, I don't know why you'd have to watch commercials with DVR. My mom does not. At best fast forward ? I don't watch TV but I cannot imagine that VCR would have this and then DVR - you know, newer technology - not have this. Plus, I've seen it done lack this feature. I'd be curious though, how or why you would not be able to just zip through the commercials... |
