Consumers pay for television broadcasts through toleration of commercial breaks, as well as cable and satellite subscritions. Consumers should not be purchasing high definition televisions, only to have the viewing experience diminished by the imposition of channel identification logos, or any of the assorted graphics, temporary or permanent, during the television show's content.
Research indicates it was the advent of common VCR usage in the 1980's that resulted in the usage of channel logos. If content protection is the purpose of these logos, then ask the FCC to instruct broadcasters to make the logo as inconspicuous as possible, while eliminating all other unneccessary ancillary graphics.
