It's always bugged me, but I'm not going to stop watching TV shows or renting DVDs because of it. I did get fed up with local radio a couple years ago and picked up XM, just for commercial-free music (and I got tired of hearing the same songs over and over--even on the classic rock station).
Some shows, like Survivor, I get a kick out of product placement, like when someone pays 100 for a bag of Doritos. Paying 10 bucks to see a movie only to be fed commercials before the lights goes down and during the previews annoys me, but once again I won't stop going to the movies.
I keep getting amazed as to the lengths they are going, I think it was the People's Choice awards that had "Chap Stick's Viewers Best Kiss Award" type crap, that's a new low. I got pissed when they changed all the bowl games to sponsorship, but award shows???
