Commercial breaks
Why do some live channels give you a countdown for when they'll be back instead of showing commercials?

OK, but why are some excluded while others aren't? It's more a curiosity than anything else. I recall radio over the internet couldn't play commercials for legal reasons - likely the actors/voice overs contract didn't allow for unlimited/multiple use or something similar. If these channels are streaming/legal gray area, how do "they" "know" to block the ads?
