Comcast FTW bitches!

I guess it wouldn't even matter since I don't watch those channels though.
 
and nick when they play reruns of old shows.

But seriously fuck viacom, cant even watch shows on their website at the moment.
 
So this is my understanding of the situation. Direct TV wants to offer their customers the ability to eliminate commercials from television that they record. Every other TV provider has the ability to do this. Nobody has gone through with it because companies like Viacom will lose of business and so in turn, will the TV provider. Viacom and other producers warned Direct TV they would pull something like this if they didnt eliminate their plans to add the advertisement skipping feature.

As a viewer, I'd love to be able to skip over ads, but I can understand Viacoms position here. This feature would take a lot of business away from them. Still, fuck Viacom and shouts out to Direct TV for being a company for the people.

 
I saw this when I turned my TV on tonight. Only channel i'm going to miss is comedy central. Really bummed bout that
 
i would possibly pay extra to get rid of comercials! but disney channel doesnt have commercials and they make so much money!
 
The only channel I ever watch is Comedy Central. I have to live off my many recordings of Tosh.0 and Workoholics now...
 
All I really care is that AMC doesn't get dropped. I know dish just dropped it. It has every good show on there.

Also I would have made my parents switch back to cable if I was a fifth grader... Nickelodeon was my life back then!
 
Everybody hates chris is pretty funny, comedy central is hilarious, and occasionally mtv can be useful (fantasy factory, jersey shore, etc.) Good thing i have fios. Suck my gaping anus you loathing fucks.
