Freeview have created a system where viewers will still have to watch ads, even while fast forwarding. There is no escape... and the next step is ads we will want to watch in slo-mo after the magic man with the swinging watch has told us to relax... relax...
The simians have collared BBC Knowledge, which is busily advertising to compete with Nat Geo et al on the Foxtel pay salad. Cool ad; the version on their site is the short one and lacks the poor fool eating cheese.
