I ONLY record the programs on Discovery that I want to watch because I simply cant handle the same ads every ad break. And they're super long too. I timed 1 to be over 6minutes then they came back to the show for a full 60 seconds then it was over.
Another thing I cant stand is I'd be watching a show, say Deadliest Catch and during the ad break they're reminding me to watch it again next week.
C'mon now!
