Every bit will be DRM'ed as well...

Can't wait for universal DRM'ed pay to view (no content saving, no copying, no sharing) bit by each and every copy-protected bit/byte in each and every TV-equiped room. Maybe they will be licensing the individual seating as well...or by the seated individual...Great googly-moogly, would that mean some folks might have to pay double on account of their fat-assed, four-eye'd couch-potato condition? Will there be ATM slots on the television sets? Will I have to accept EULA as my personal "Guide and ad-visor"? Will the TVs have a "reset" button for the inevitable BSOD? Will my on-screen guide get hijacked by CWS? Will there be "Pop-up" commercials when I least expect them? Will there ever come a time when I won't have to constantly patch or upgrade my TV-OS? If I can't afford to upgrade the TV-OS, will I be stuck in syndicated re-run land? Who do I call for service and support; SBC, or M$?
