I fear icon comercials are the wave of the future. Remember when the little network icons started appearing 24/7? That was just to get us used to the idea of something always being in the lower right corner of the TV.

Do you own a DVD player? If so, have you noticed the sections of the DVD where you lose control of your player...like the FBI warning?

Soon, I think there will be "movie theatre" type ads on DVDs that will be protected that way.

Makes me sick.

I think you're right. I can see cable companies and networks putting runningh ads in the lower reaches of the picture on a constant basis, then offering a subscription to get rid of the ad. Kind of like what Net Zero and some of those free web access companies pioneered.

Shhhhh! They might hear you. Some executive wannabe just got an idea to pitch to the Big Boys.
