They need to start takin online viewing WAY more seriously. To me, the DVR is old tech I rarely use any more. I use Online for everything, though i watch quite a few shows live, including Hawaii Five-0, but i dont have a DVR in my bedroom wear I watch them usually. Hulu uses ads during all normal commercial break so you'd think this stuff would count MORE than a DVR stat. Nielsen and the networks are so freakin last decade. Personally I hate "Television" and think everything should just be online and on-demand
