Inspired by the Melania thread. I’ve deliberately created a 2 hour video that is designed to be as hard to watch as possible. The exception being I haven’t used any techniques that are actually illegal to film, (no CSAM etc). How much would I have to pay you to watch it? You must watch it with the care you would normally watch a cinema film and if you want to leave early you lose $50 rather than receiving any payment. _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/6541))_ ---

Suppose someone has a television that receives a signal via a coaxial cable and is billed by a cable company but is only subscribed to local channels such as ABC and NBC and not cable channels such as ESPN or TNT. Person A says they do not have cable because they only receive channels that they used to receive over the air before the switch to digital. Person B says they do have cable because they get TV via a cable company. Whom do you agree with? _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/6545))_ ---
