Actually, that's pretty much exactly what network television does, and they're rolling in the dough.
Network television is valuable? That's news to me. I'd better grab my TiVo and start copying those expensive 'Friends' episodes. I predict that someday we will all use them as a form of currency.

Please people, can we avoid the stupid crap that is covered Ad Nauseum by CNN, USAToday, and freakin' MSNBC?
Before I can post a comment I'm supposed to follow Important Stuff like "Please try to keep posts on topic."
Why in the hell am I supposed to keep posts on topic when the story shouldn't even be here in the first place?
Taco needs to add a "Stupid Story Threshold" to the User Preferences page so we can weed this junk out.
Tired of distributions that aren't flexible? Can't do an "rpm -Uvh" without downloading oogles of other package dependency crap? Why not try "Slackware" (TM). Yes, that's right, "Slackware".
It slices, it dices, it does everything you would think a bsd-type linux shoud do... and more!

...and who wouldn't want to go inside his computer and interact with programs as people?
Uh, me for one. Time to get outside more, dude.
What about the fact that in 10 years this Mom has a %50 chance of not being able to be a parent anymore?
How selfish is this? "I want a child so much that I will risk the possibility of making it's life miserable in a decade."
Gee, thanks Mom.
