With the widespread use of smartphones, various daily lives of civilians are being filmed, which are then aired as "compilation programs" on television and other media.

This is fun enough with content alone.

Comments from studio guests -- I don't want any.

Quiz-style guest answers -- not at all, no need.

I "skip" all those parts.

Well, this is a matter of my taste, and some people say, 'I need guests.

I think the "ratings" system needs to be rethought.

Recently, they have also been measuring the ratings of recorded programs (time-shift ratings), but it seems far from a fully automated system.

It is relatively easy to install on a device (TV or HDD recorder), such as measuring "commercial skips."

This could be applied to measure guest comment skips, etc.

But, this system does not seem to be in place.

Well, I understand why.

If "commercial skipping" and "comment skipping" become available, (1) sponsors' willingness to invest in TV programs will decrease dramatically, (2) TV stations' revenues will also decrease dramatically, (3) TV personalities will no longer be used, and as a result, (4) the number of contents viewers can choose from will also decrease dramatically.

Because it would be a realistic reenactment of the "Tragedy of the Commons" or the "Prisoner's Dilemma."

The optimal strategy that does not break this framework would be personally doing "commercial skipping" and "comment removal."

Incidentally, a popular TV drama series was cheating with a "top rating of over 40%," and I was muttering to myself, "Talk nonsense.

By examining the number of people traveling during the public transportation period, it is easy to see that this "40%" is impossible.

I would like to know the definition of "ratings."
