Would you Accept Advertising on your Gadgets?

http://live.pirillo.com – I get invited to several events throughout the year. I was supposed to attend an event the other day at Microsoft. Unfortunately, I’ve been having issues with my own Web servers, and couldn’t go. Microsoft has been making waves with their announcement about bringing advertising to things like the Zune.

I really don’t want the ads on the device and I’ll give you an example why. My cable box has “TV Guide” as the directory service. I am paying for the cable service and the monthly box fee yet I have to not only look at the ads at the bottom of the guide when I hit the button, but it also eats up a row of what should be a TV listing. What the hell!! I have a feeling the “Honeymoon” will be over for this before we know it. Remeber when XM had NO ads and they bragged about it!!!!

if microsoft gives me a free zune then i welcome microsoft ads, as long as it is not male enhancers or bogus lotteries, it may be fine for a while but the spam will follow, ads i have no interest in would be bad, so there needs to be ‘transparency’ as chris would say, if i can put up with ads on tv then zune ads are fine, but if i need to pay for ANYTHING, then the deal is off, NO DEAL!

If they offer an additional version of things for free or discounted prices, but has un-removable ads, I am all for it.

because we get irrelevant ads like male enhancement products. when you like a product or a website for example, you may check the box that says “send me updates” because the information pertains to you. if the ads are of useful information, why not?

I hope to see fewer ads on paid services though, but for now, they are not in the way or harming me and my experience.

I would not mind advertisements on paid gadgets or services as long as they did not get in my way or change my experience. As Chris said, the xBox360 ads are ok, they show us what video games are comming out, this is helpful information. On paid services, expect ads, these are ok regardless if they are in the way, it is free, what do you expect?

Haha… no way. Advertising just saturates everything these days – the LAST place I want to see it is on my Desktop 24/7. I’m so tired of looking at advertisement after advertisement everywhere my head turns when I’m not in my house! I can’t imagine have to do so inside of my house as well! :)

Why don’t we feel the same way about spam? Why are we desensitized to corporations in our face all the time, yet we detest spammers? What’s the difference?

Ubiquitous ads and corporate marketing basically invade every aspect of our lives, EVERYWHERE we go, all the time, shaping who we are. It’s worse than the spam that clogs my inbox daily.

Corporate interests would lock down the Internet if they could, denying access and clogging bandwidth with their advertising. Why do we tolerate it???

“But you know …
“But you know they’re put on billboards” and so on.

Yeah and I hate being bombarded with them while I’m out in public areas too. I’ve gotten to the point where I avoid all companies that are involved with invasive advertising.
