ARE THE BIG TV NETWORKS ON-DEMAND SHOWS, FORCING YOU TO WATCH THEIR COMMERCIALS?

It looks like the networks have finally found a way around making viewers notice their ads, by disabling the fast forward key on the remote control altogether.

Whenever you order a show on NBC show,you are NOW warned at the beginning. the fast forward mode will not work with this show.  ABC and FOX recently added their show to the listings, and now promote this same message. Only CBS (for now) has the fewest ads and will allow you to fast forward any part of the programs.

Time Warner cable subscribers have been given no reason, for why they can't use the fast forward key. The networks are keeping very quiet about the new revelation for viewers. If something isn't done by viewers, this could infect some affect cable channel aligned with their sister networks  (USA, MTV,Lifetime, FX;etc.) Will viewers have to go to Congress to get their fast forward buttons back? What's next, the off button?


Later.
