Do normal people mute the ads or just let the television keep going?
Do normal people mute the ads or just let the television keep going?
I diligently mute them, I'm a freak I cannot stand them. But from the nature of many people's complaints about ads, it seems like they listen to them and want to retain the words they've said?
You're viewing a single thread.
I solved this problem by having not watched cable television in like ten years.
same. something like 17 years here.
Caught some TV a couple months ago at my moms place, and was horrified about the amount of ad breaks and length. I don't know how anyone can tolerate this
Frog in the pot, man. It's crazy what people put up with. Same with rawdogging YouTube
With a DVR you haven't had to watch a commercial on TV/cable in over 20 years. Streaming is bringing unskippable ads and surveillance. The internet is making things worse, not better.

Torrents bring neither and are higher quality and more user friendly.

No, it's not. Before the Internet you could only watch what was on, when it was on.
Now you can torrent anything you want to watch, whenever you want to watch it, and in much higher quality than TV used to be. And, again, without ads, which TV has always been riddled with.
That's infinitely better, on multiple metrics.
