Television. For the first time in a number of years, I feel like this fall has a number of interesting shows. How ironic that I don't have the time to watch any of them. It's surprising how little the tv landscape has changed, despite all the HD this and widescreen that. Sure, DVD-RW, PVR, and TiVo have just about replaced the "when I was a kid" blank videotapes (or tape over the tab if you're in dire need) - and they've certainly added some functionality - but I just don't understand why everything in 2007 isn't on demand.

However, I heard on the radio this morning that Rogers was just given the ok by the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC for all those acronym peeps) to put television shows on demand with commercials embedded within them. Regular network shows available 24/7. I wouldn't mind a couple of Geico and Zellers spots between Pushing Daisies acts if it means I can watch 'em whenever I want (for less hassle than it is to look for torrents... not taht it matters because it's the American population that affect ratings, not me). Provided it doesn't cost more since I'm already paying for the cable. And watching the ads.
