Was it through streaming, cable, or some other digital thing?
I don't see advertising as straying away from being a sub-conversation of intellectual property. If a service emphasizes its usage, I'm either going to honor it all the way through or switch to an alternate medium.
Cable tv
And I’m sorry I just disagree. A few ads is one thing. Basically half the show is just stupid. I won’t watch that many commercials. I’ll record the show
What were you doing to end up with a program that was interrupted like that by the minute?
Not sure what you mean by, what was I doing.
But I recorded the show as a test because I was thinking man there seems to be a lot of commercials. I checked the time before I started the show. Then I watched the show and fast forwarded through the commercials. Then I checked the time after the show.
That's how I figured out how out the length of the actual show. They played a little bit of show then a block of commercials.
