Hi guys,
This is going to sound a bit crazy I think, or maybe someone has already thought of this, but bare with me....I really miss adverts. It's not the adverts themselves, but the pre-determind break between shows.
I've moved my system entirely to a downloaded/streamed libiary, and I really miss the pre-determind timeslot (say, for 3-5 minutes on every at every time the minute hand goes to 00, 20, 40 on the clock). I don't really care what it shows, any random 30-1m long youtube clip would do... I don't even care if someone is making money off it.
The idea behind this is because during this time, I'll go make a cup of tea, check my messages on forums, go bathroom... whatever. And because I have this pre-set time to do other things. I know I can always pause the show, but that's not the point. I believe I'll be able to concentrate more on the show in hand, or not (for example) go on a message board and end up having to try and remember what part of the show I was at when I got disracted.
Does anyone else feel the same way? It would also have the benfit of maybe choosing a catagory of 'advert', such as movie trailers, TV trailers or whatever hobbies I've got.... so I can keep up to date with the latest stuff I'm interested in.
