Funny - another ignorant American.
My TV in England has more channels than the cable service my family in the US has.
When I watch the game in England, I can select which camera angle I want to see the game from, call up statistics on the match, read profiles on the players and check my email during the commercials - of which the're are far less than in the US.
If I do see a commerical I like, for example a car advert, I can push a button and book a test drive and my nearest dealer.
When I watch a news channel, I can call up the latest heeadlines or read more about a particular story in depth - all while still watching the main broadcast.
When I'm in the US watching TV, I can do none of these. But that's ok - you guys have a higher frame rate. Don't feel bad, we English are all actually envious of you.
