Rubbish programmes on many channels: why?

Main reason I was so glad when F1 went back to the BBC. Even when I have been watching the last two races I was just waiting for an advert break to spoil things,

When we went to Florida in the early 90s we were amazed when advert breaks happened without warning, no title up to show the programmed had stopped/restarted. Now it happens here as well and I find it very irritating

Unless films are on a non-advert channel I wont watch, I would rather buy a DVD and watch more than once,and there is so much dross around that some days unless I watch the news channels the TV doesnt go on at all. Which perhaps isnt a bad thing

television as a medium is dying anyway. soon all content will be on the internet. anyone with a website can be a broadcaster. why would advertisers pay for an ad break that no one watches when they could direct someone through the web to their own website - one click away from a purchase.

those of us who work in television and have any clue know the days of television are numbered.
