You must be on the same wave length of me and my friends. We where recently talking about this functionality, so only the first person mark commercials (manual, ie, not auto flagged) and submit their locations to the network. Then everyone else has perfectly commercial free viewing. For any time that show ever airs, it's likely to be the same too. THE MAN would definitely dislike this idea, and IANAL, but I certainly can't seeing it being illegal. There's no obligation to watching commercials or using any sort of technology to skip them, as far as I know. Issac already expressed he doesn't want any technology that's central server centric (ala Napster was), at least that's the way I understood his post about that. Maybe I misunderstood. -Kenneth
