Senate May Ram Copyright Bill more importantly:
...under the proposed language, viewers would not be allowed to use software or devices to skip commericals or promotional announcements "that would otherwise be performed or displayed before, during or after the performance of the motion picture," like the previews on a DVD.
they're making proposing to make it illegal to electronically skip recorded commercials. that's not ALL the Intellectual Property Protection Act does, it's just a small rather disturbing part of it.
