.. I can definately say that I will be one of these people, and I would be willing to bet a large sum that my friends will be doing the same.

This entertainment has completely taken over any time I would have used watching TV ... in fact, I am downgrading our digital cable from this "Super" package down to just basic cable, for when I'm really, really bored within the next week.
