Tivo and the other PVR's (except the open source ones) are making money by taking content that is paid for through advertising and giving a way to circumvent that to everyone. So, in a sense, Tivo is almost becoming the content deliverer. It captures the TV show, edits portions of it, and delivers it at a time and space when wanted. AdBlock is not delivering the content. And it is not a for revenue product being offered to everyone. Also, AdBlock requires customer settings, though they do provide some lists of the usual ad servers. It's similar...Eventually, if AdBlock usage takes off I would expect the same thing: ad's delivered within an article or whatever. And AdBlock doesn't seem to work on YouTube videos, Google videos, or the iTunes store. AdBlock is for html pages: which is sooo 1999
