    And if the driver is only looking at the car in front of them, they're going to have a lot of accidents.

    I typically look through the car in front of me to see how the next car is driving, and how the driver in front of me will react to that.

  23. Re:TV ain't broken? on TV Isn't Broken, So Why Fix It? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    This is fundamentally what's wrong with TV. The subscription model.

    I dont want 1000 channels of random cram, repeated every 4 hours. You're going to get repeat crap when there's 1000 channels to fill.

    I want about 25 channels of stuff that *I* want to watch. And I want to be able to actually chose those channels. And add or subtract channels I'm (not) interested in. I don't ever want to see a hunting/cooking/househunting show. But I do want to to watch hockey games/history/movies. You can't, the subscription model says you have to have both.

    If the price is $1.99/channel/month, I'd get what I want for about the same price without having to surf the channel guide regularly.
