Here at Channel 7, we receive commercials a number of ways.  We still get a 
fair amount on tape, both Betacam and 1 inch formats.  We have two digital 
systems by which we receive spots, one from Digital Generation, and one 
from Williams VYVX.  The only thing we still receive on 3/4 inch tape are 
PSA's.
