I'm with you, but... I just discovered that the average number of hours spent in front of a TV (per person, nation-wide) has increased again, and not just among adults, but among teens and even pre-teens. Apparently people like that junk. Perhaps proliferation of HD picture contributes to this, because let's face it, internet-powered video looks like crap, even iTunes' $2.99 multi-gigabyte downloads aren't as crisp as TimeWarner's HD programming. P.S. Apologies for being unable to provide a source, there were a few links here on HN, actually, confirming this.
