[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 55382, member: 126"] Re: critical thought That's why TV these days increasingly has commercial product placements during the show content, with all kinds of promotional tags running under the show along the bottom edge of the screen. There is a legal challenge going on right now about the "hopper" bing offered mainstream by Dish, from content providers, I suspect there will be technology adjustments to make it harder to distinguish commercial from show. I have been thinking about using the pattern recognition technology used to ID songs to ID commercials so you can dim the volume more, each time they are repeated. We are all still exposed to and influenced by the "persuaders" among us, some more than others. I am only suggesting we try to understand who is pushing our buttons and why. YMMV JR [/QUOTE]
