Charge me some portion of the carriage fee and show me the local ads rather than the generic highlights between innings. Just let me watch the local team.
The problem with showing the local ads is that they sometimes only pay for rights for a certain region. If they hire musicians for the jingle and the audience is only NYC, then the fee would generally be less than if it were for a global audience.
I think that's why they show all the baseball zen stuff rather than ads for whatever feed they are broadcasting.
My preference would be for them to pull back to a whole-stadium view and just let the ballpark sounds play. The stuff the MLB inserts is all pretty bad.
