This is one of the reasons I won't watch anything on TNN.

They have a whole bar that runs across the bottom of the screen with their logo, what's playing, and the coming attractions. And it also squashes the picture above it slightly, but noticeable.

I am in the HT industry, and know for a fact that TNN's and MTV's logo's, because of the relatively high contrast, WILL burn into the picture. Whether it be a rear-pro, CRT, or plasma. I have had a few client's in which this has happened.

I have personally edited those, and many more channels, out of my Directv channel lineup in my receiver options. I don't want soneone to inadvertantly leave one of those channels on for a while when I'm not around.

Even at cost, the equipment I own is expensive, and I don't want to have to replace ANY of it due to someone's get-rich marketing schemes.

Just my 2 cents.
