Didn't think ETrade's barfing baby was funny, although after a day that's the only one I remember. Too bad for me. I agree with the fast forwarding of commercials - or at least having the option. I don't agree with free TV going away. Local merchants and their customers will bear the cost of the deprecation of free TV, a catch 22. I would say the next big advertising boon will be companies that advertise through your cellphone, iphone, ipod, etc.- in fact it's already begun. These are targeted ads that are content-controlled by the end-user. Ads that are only about power tools, or lingerie (or both), what a concept. IMO the Super Bowl commercials this year sucked.
