WIKI: "The Hopper"

Chances if you've seen the highly annoying commercials, you know what the Hopper is.
or the "Hoppa"
(insert the annoying Australian accent here)
But the hopper isn't the first system to allow viewers to watch tv where they want, when they want.
More and more, people are recording television instead of actually watching it.
They can fast forward through commercials,
they can pause live television if they need Doritos from the kitchen
or whatever the instant need is...
No longer do we care if we get home by six to watch our show,
because we can dictate when we watch things.
It's that control thing.
We like it.
That is, until media controls us.
