CBS (or its parent company) get big money from commercial advertisers. Maybe they will also have a streaming advertisement along the bottom during the show like CNBC does for the stock market. Triple the income without all that pesky technology that lets consumers watch what they do/don't want to. How about this. Consumers just cut the cord and no longer watch television. -- "The level of sacrifice that you give is beyond my comprehension. If the rest of us in the Country showed the level sacrifice that you do on a daily basis, we wouldn't have any of the problems we have." Comedian Lewis Black speaking to the US troops. |

 | There are a few diamonds in the rough. only finding 3 or 4 hrs (by timeslot) of good TV over the course of a week on 100 channels is a pretty bad ratio of watchable to unwatchable.
Getting just the stuff you want without ads illegally is very easy.
If Hulu would just be what it should be and not what it is it would be much easier to get consumers to spend. |
