I find it literally impossible to watch any show at air time. Impossible.

I'm in the same boat. My wife and I have several shows that we DVR. We do most of our primetime TV watching from 10-12 at night.

Another problem I see with this whole situation is perspective. We are currently discussing movies and TV on the internet. Which means we have a little bit of a clue about the Internet and are probably really into movies and TV if we go to the net to talk about it. Most people aren't like that.

If I can just talk out of my arse for a minute, I will. Now I dont' have any hibbity jibbity stats to support what I'm about to say like it's fact, but I really believe that we are in the minority and are expecting industries to change they way they do things just to suit our needs. But it is a situation like wine. Where 20% of the population drinks 80% of the wine. So does the wine industry go after everyone, or do they go after those 20%?

Right now, TV and Music are in an in between zone and are there are so many available ways for access and new ways of doing things every year there is no way to keep up. Who would have thought 10 years ago that we would be watching TV on our cell phones?

Everyone jus tneeds ot chill the frick out. The market will do what it does.

But it will never be free!
