TIVO Is Doing What!?

Ha Ha! Oh, I almost fell out of my chair...

"Digital video-recording company TiVo Inc., famous for helping customers skip commercials on their favorite television programs, is taking steps to encourage viewers to watch them."

They've been telling subscribers that they would be adding banner ads while fast forwarding for quite a while. Personally I don't care. I'm fast forwarding anyway, it's not like i'm actually paying attention to what's on the screen until the show starts again...

"The new commercial strategy is the latest attempt by TiVo to generate ad revenue for the company, which has yet to turn a profit since its founding in 1997." Wow I had no idea. I thought they were raking the money in.
