Why can't they come up with a product that "zaps" commercials like those advertised for spam callers/telemarketers?
Wasn't TIVO supposed to do that?

I had to be in the hospital this weekend. On the hospitals crappy cable system there were like six channels showing college football. Punching through from game to game there were times when all six games were on commercial break at the same time. Happened at least three or four times.
And it is amazing how often there is a game stoppage during the games as you look from game to game even if it isn't a commercial. You are watching a game. Play stops because of injury. Switch to the next game? "Review for targeting"? Switch to the next game? Referees conferencing about a call in the middle of the field.
Its almost surprising when you get to a game where they are actually playing football.

Attempts have been made. It's pretty hard to do apparently. Really the only thing it matters on is sports. There are plenty of download options to watch anything else completely uninterrupted, albeit not live.
