That's from one of the college panelists, who explains that he watches everything he wants on demand over his laptop. Another panelist chimes in that she "hates the advertising" on broadcast and cable TV, and some digital platforms allow her to skip through. Several of the panelists are also honest about getting free content by whatever means necessary -- i.e. not-so-legal downloading -- although there do seem to be some qualms about the legal/moral/ethical aspect of it.  Judging by my own peers, however (that' s folks in their early 30s, no longer in the bloom of youth) financial considerations will trump the legal and moral aspect every time.  Maybe younger adults have a better-developed sense of right and wrong?
