Sorry if this has been answered before, but a rudimentary search didn't pull up anything.
While watching one of the national channels, there was a commercial for recall election going on in our state. I thought it would be odd for one of the parties to be spending money to hit viewers across the nation for a state election, so I hit the back button. Strangely enough, the commercial wasn't there - instead it was a Nutrasystem ad.
Is Dish using their DVRs to store locally-targeted ads and then replay them from the hard drive during what would be a locally-designated break? I'm not sure how else they would be doing this. It may have happened before, but since this recall is such a specific item, I may just not have noticed it. I own a 722k.
Not that any of bothers me, I'm just curious. It would be an interesting use of technology that I wasn't aware of.
