I really have no idea.
I understand commercials are common on cable now
but it's been that long since I had cable
I can't really say.

Cable's pretty expensive to maintain with upkeep, repair
personel, accounting, ect. Perhaps satellite direct T.V. will
come out on top?

I don't think they are really targeting advertising
dollars to those of limited means.
Fortunately there's nothing much left on broadcast T.V. worth
watching in the first place.

Hey has anyone noticed any reality in any of those _reality_
shows?

Well off to tv.yahoo.com
to see if there's anything on PBS today...
