Do D*, TiVo, or any other entity with a set top box and feedback capabilities play into the Neilsen ratings? Or, is it strictly on a random/voluntary basis?
I wonder if the "ratings" are registered when a show is recorded, or when a show is viewed. If it's the latter, they're gonna hate me during ratings weeks. We record "serial" shows like prison break, and 24, then watch them over consecutive nights when the season is over.jonaswan2 said:Tivo has, since the begining of Series 2, given ratings to Neilsen if the customer didn't mind.
DirecTV just very recently signed an agreement with Neilsen for God knows what, so yeah...
Does this apply to my directivo as well?jonaswan2 said:Tivo has, since the begining of Series 2, given ratings to Neilsen if the customer didn't mind.

I was approached by Nielsen a couple of years ago. In the journal I had to keep I wrote down what I watched when I actually watched it, and there was a column where I documented when it actually aired and I recorded it.greenie95125 said:I wonder if the "ratings" are registered when a show is recorded, or when a show is viewed.
If I am not mistaken it takes the information you watch live and recorded. Yes the D* receivers do the same. Press the Active button on your remote and go to what's hot it shows the most watched programs at that time.ProfLonghair said:Does this apply to my directivo as well?
