    How far back are we talking? Because I remember in the '90s using the VHS recorder to record shows to fast forward through the ads later

      Yeah, but you had to sit there for like a minute to do that, and you had to be on alert for that, not enjoying it but waiting for the ad break. Nowadays, the whole thing just plays uninterrupted.
