I think that you should be able to skip the ads on your own device, but look at the upside for not skipping.
Last week when the comercials started i left my hotel room, went to the ground floor, crossed the street, went into a supermarket, bought some ice cream, paid for it, went back to my room and didn't miss any of my show. (they are learning in germany, the comercials can be between 6 - 8 minutes at a time).
only a couple of computers? assuming that they cost 15k each that would be 333 (and a third) computers. That would fill a classroom (or two) floor to ceiling with boxes. how do you steal or lose that much?
this is an interesting idea but in addition to the possibility that you get home and it has not been activated, does this mean you need a new dvd player to play the new dvd's?
Consumers will love that ( whatta ya mean I need a new dvd player to watch this 10 dollar movie )
