I never find myself saying "500 channels and nothing to watch". Most of the time I have very little idea what channel any show I am watching is on (brought home to me the other day when, trying to navigate the new-to-us On Demand feature, my wife, son and I for the life of us could not remember what network a particular show we wanted to watch was on). Part of this is that I watch a lot of sports; part is our reliance on the DVR, and part is the supplement of our TV watching with Netflix, all of which means I now seem always to have more content that I have identified as something I would like to watch than I have time to watch it in. -- TV or Not TV ....
