Default Why, when we are all digital with subtitles...

Well I'm not sure about that always being the case. I thought you all might
like to know that once all stations are equipped, AD is going to be used on
adverts. Proctor and Gamble are pioneering this, and its about bloody time
after all our money is as good as the sighted types money is.


As for Dogs, well that is a fact of life to stop people pirating the
content.
You also get audio versions on radio, particularly in special events like
live concerts, where during a bit of a pause an announcer will state you are
listening to xxx or whatever.

coalesced the vapors of human
experience into a viable and meaningful comprehension...

do we have to be subjected to gurning gesticulating gargoyles in the
corner of the screen, who cannot be eradicated by mere button push?

Its as bad as the 'NARative audio track, designed for people who
presumably cant watch the telly they just tuned into...


It's not a GGG, it's called a DOG, Digital On-screen Graphic, and
it's there so you always know what channel you are watching, but have
you noticed it does disappear when the adverts are on, the advertisers
insist on that!
