I absolutely despise commercials,I will turn the channel even at the expense of missing the show I want to watch,and I refuse to buy a product that interrupts my shows.
TV used to be free,and I can see back then using commercials to make money, but that is assuming that commercials actually create income,Imagine the money they could save if they didn't pay millions in advertising,the price of products we buy includes advertising,so in reality,we pay for the ads we see by paying higher prices for products.
Maybe if actors and directors and producers... that make TV shows and movies didn't make so much money...Hmm, No, wouldn't matter because it comes down to greed.
Buy a box of cereal,price goes up ,box gets bigger, but they put less in it, buyer beware and screw the consumer.
I payed for my TV, I pay my cable bill,I pay the electricity,and the truth is we all are being screwed because very,very few people want to pay their cable bill just for commercials, we are force fed advertising and we pay to see them,not only do we have 5 commercial breaks an hour, but they now have commercials on the screen during our programming.I will be glad when someone with enough clout and power is able to convince the courts that copyright laws are a joke,you write a song, get a copyright,I can write the same song change a couple of words and a couple of notes and I can get a copyright also,its all a big scam to cheat consumers out of their money.
