This is a very interesting subject to me, as I haven't seen my "most-watched-on-DVR" program listed which, by the way, I'm sure that millions of others are watching the same show on their DVR's as well. Thank You. I would like to know how you arrive at the numbers for your “What You’re Watching On DVR’s” ratings, ie: do you send out surveys, call people, monitor DVR viewing somehow, etc.??
