"Teletrax today announced that CBS Television Distribution (CTD) will electronically monitor and evaluate usage of its broadcast marketing and promotional content on television stations nationwide using the digital watermarking and broadcast tracking service. Teletrax is a subsidiary of Medialink Worldwide Incorporated .
CTD, a unit of CBS Corp. , a leader in worldwide television syndication, will utilize the Teletrax(TM) comprehensive suite of broadcast intelligence services to electronically monitor and analyze affiliate stations' usage of its on-air television show promotions across all 210 major cities, or DMAs, in the United States.

"We've all read stories heralding the death of advertising as we know it. But have consumers really abandoned advertising?
The answer, it seems, rests on the shoulders of the people who buy our brands and recommend them to others -- not with advertisers, marketers or consultants. That's why we went straight to the source by visiting people's homes in Columbus, Ohio (a test-marketing Mecca) to do the unthinkable: mess with their media. We deprived them of their TiVos, their laptops and their cellphones. We added ourselves to their e-mail lists. We asked them to journal their feelings and attitudes. We discovered that consumers don't do what they say, and that they've become experts in ignoring and rejecting messages. They can instantly recognize messages that are irrelevant or ill-timed."

I think the major broadcasters are finally getting it, people are looking to alternatives in their veiwing. Plus, there is a large migration to watching TV on the internet.
My site http://HateCable.com, which primarily markets Satellite TV to people fed up with cable companies ripping them off, also provides online TV to my customers. We even have software so you can download shows and movies to you iPhone and iPod. People want their entertainment to be portable and this is what is happening, in my opinion.
The major networks will see a vast drop in advertising revenue. Advertisers will go to where the people are...the major networks are not that place. To download TV, movies and even videogames to your pc and other devices like ipod and iPhone come to http://hatecable.com.
