Google search result have a title (headline), snippet of page (first three lines of an article), just no picture, does this mean we can ALL sue Google if they display your page in the search results?.......I think not.
I'm supprised this hasn't happened yet, is there some law stopping it from happening. I wouldn't mind watching my show and them having a "John Smiths" pump at the bar, or a show cast member showing off their new Nokia N70 to their mates etc. Something like "The Truman Show", but just not as obvious. Bravo (UK) are showing The Ultimate Fighter 2 series now, and for the last 3 episodes every morning when it follows a fighter into the bath room, the camera zooms in on a Lynx roll on deodorant of some kind, has it already started? The reality shows could maximise on this ten fold.

How many channels does that get you though? We now have about 20 channels with "+1 hour" programming, so if we miss the 10th repeat we can watch it repeated again in 1 hour. Is the US cable as bad?
I think this whole subject in general is getting too much talk, TiVo in the UK is a PVR and thats as far as it goes. The US TiVo's are obviously alot more than PVR's.
