Why!? I'm actually going to be donating my TV away to a friend. I can't

with the 5 minutes of commercials for 10 minutes of show any more.
Yes, I've actually timed it.

And all this DMCA crap has me totally turned off to all forms of
Hollywood entertainment.
I now spend my money on books, bowling and skating, et cetera.
Not the M$ electronic book crap either!
