A representative left a thing on my door that says they want me to do the TV ratings. For those who aren't familiar, they install a box in your house that tracks your TV viewing habits.
I know they give out like gift cards and stuff but it seems like a lot of hassle(having to use their remote to watch tv) and loss of privacy(the box listens to your living room, basically) just for like $100 in free stuff per year. Does anyone here know anyone who has done this? I'm intrigued at the idea of having my TV watching "count," but it could also be a big waste of time. And I do not watch a ton of TV to begin with. --- BKSheikah correctly guessed which years are more popular than others on this video game website.

My advice depends on whether or not you like the same shows as me...

You people are so selfish. I wouldn't care whether he likes the same shows I do, just as long as he watches them.

I was a Nielsen viewer once, but it was back in the early 90s when you just wrote what you watched in each time slot in a journal they gave you

Well, the researcher came by today to talk and asked if I have cable. Since I do not, she said that I'm not eligible.

Nielsen sent me a crisp dollar bill in the mail once. They said if I filled out a survey, they'd send another one. Or maybe it was a fiver, I can't remember.
I said hell no to the survey, but free money in the mail is always cool --- pepsi for tv-game ... Copied to Clipboard!
