it’s a good thing i like books better than tv

Since TiVO is testing banner-ads during fast-forwarding over advertisements, would someone please patent my idea of running banner-ads in the black space on the top and bottom black space in letterboxed content? Caveat: You must have enough money to defend the patent, and you must refuse to license it to anyone. ’k-thx-bye. This whole era of DRM and unspoken social contracts that imply advertisements are being watched to fund TV, not watching them is “stealing” is rife with silliness. It gets the people making products focusing on appeasing the content providers instead of consumers.

Edit: Already deleted from YouTube; sorry if you missed it. This was a trailer for Joss Whedon's new series, "Dollhouse," about operatives who can have their memories altered to become new people.
