Eivind,

	hmm....if i understand what you are saying then
	1.  i should watch the commercials on TV rather than getting 
	    a sandwich or changing the channel.
	2.  if i record a program of TV, i shouldnt fast-forward thru
	    the commercials.

	the commericals are paying for the program that i am watching.
	nonetheless, i dont believe that its theft.
