comcast made it EZ with integrated links to netflix and prime. we record everything we like to watch for playback later to skip commercials. comcast here just introduced "smart resume" for programming on the major broadcast networks. when fast-forwarding thru those programs the commercial breaks are visually indicated.
"The Smart Resume feature in Comcast Labs allows you to more easily navigate past commercial breaks within DVR recordings. If you fast forward through a commercial break when Smart Resume is enabled, Smart Resume will automatically drop you into playback when the commercial break ends."
pretty nifty but i'm guessing the advertisers aren't thrilled. maybe Comcast is compensating them somehow.
