And you see digital tv providers trying to implement fast forward blockers without chasing away their customers too much

Any time I fast forward and have to wait for a commercial that interrupted my fast forwarding, it's an immediate cancelation of the service and I'm on the phone with customer support to try and get my couple of bucks for that month back.

Fuck your shitty service, I'm grabbing my hat and sword.
