Default Cable TV Too Lould

More importantly, there has been an attempt for some time, now, to
actually define skipping commercials as 'theft of service,' and make it
illegal. This issue was given voice by Ted Turner 10 years ago at a
conference, in which he openly stated that people who skip through, edit
out, mute or otherwise remove commercials from media are guilty of theft
and ought to be prosecuted for their crimes.


On a semi-related note...

Sony/BMG are trying to redefine "illegal" regarding fair use of music. I
just read an article saying that they're pushing to make it illegal for you
to rip your own, bought and paid for, CD's to your computer or mp3 player,
regardless of whether you are sharing them or not. Their logic: ripping a CD
to your computer or mp3 player, even after purchasing the CD, is like
"stealing only one copy".
