People TiVo because this is damn annoying. The other thing is the number of ads. All the TV networks need to do is: 1. Cut down on the number and space them better; and 2. make a rule that says you don't play the same commercial more than twice in an hour. I know the reaction to this will be that advertising income will go down. Maybe a little. But what good is an ad if it just annoys people? As for the five-second thing that's too close to subliminal advertising for me. Tricky and dishonest. I wouldn't buy a product that is advertised that way.
