Maybe the two-tier system should be:

1) A la carte pay-per-view, with no commercials.  Whether it's a show, or 
a movie, or the news, you pay for what you watch (pro-rating the ones you 
cut short, so you can watch eg the first half hour of a movie and decide 
you don't like it).

2) Internet style, one segment of the screen is the show, and the rest of 
it (bottom and side 25%, maybe) is adverts.  The show is uninterrupted, 
and so are the adverts, but it's free for everyone to watch.
