Too much bling and I start back-buttoning. Note to partners with banner options: don't make them animated next to your videos, they distract the viewer from your content. Pre-rolls are tolerable, if you can mute the sound without stopping the stream. If they insist on streaming each time I watch without re-loading the page I'll plug-in TIVO! I still think they should pay content creators to make ads with an unintrusive banner on the side to click. If I'm willing to log-in and rate your video I'm willing to click an advert's banner along with the stars. Of course that's not proof I will buy what they are selling, but the point of advertising is to seep into my subconscious for a later date in hopes that I will blurt out the brand when engaging in casual conversation with other folks. People buy products recommended by those they trust, or a familiar face, didn't Mr Whipple prove that already? Hey Kev, did the people at Kelloggs ever send you a case? If not they were fools!

Even though I hate "LOL", I just had to throw that out there. Glad to seeing you posting again, Nalts. I find pretty much ANY ad intrusive. I am an ad person's worst nightmare. I DVR everything so I don't have to watch ads on TV. Any time I watch something live, I mute the commercials. When watching content on the Internet, I always have 2 windows open so I can click away from the ads that you can't avoid (like linear ads, or the ads the stick in the middle of "The Office"). I know I don't make your job any easier, Nalts, and I know that ads are what make non-cable TV free (I am not a cable subscriber), and allow networks to post TV shows on the Net for free, but most ads are so mind-numbingly boring or insulting to my intelligence that I strive to avoid them at all costs. But that's just me. LOL, sukatra! Even though I hate “LOL”, I just had to throw that out there.
