Sure, I'll make a friendly bet. You are assuming that viewers would rather have advertising targeted at them than no advertising at all. Me? If I want to buy something then I go check it out on the net.

Billy is right about the technology coming first, but you make a good point about how the use of that technology will cause advertisers to pay for the technology, and how we are all providing our demographics to broadcasters. We are splitting hairs here, and playing the chicken and egg game.

I think you are correct about what they are going to feed FredE. LOL!
