Re: Flying
Agreed. And on some airlines those "entertainment" systems now bombard you with advertisements before and after the main part of the flight, and can't be switched off during those periods. In fact, the last time I flew, the controls on my unit were broken and the damned thing showed ads the whole time. I had to jam a piece of paper behind the bezel.
I've always brought my own entertainment when I fly, using a cunning portable device called a "book".
As far as I'm concerned, there's been one significant improvement in air-travel comfort in my lifetime: banning smoking.
