Ok, you are one of those "audio ads annoy" surfers. That is interesting...

POLL:

1. How many people here hate the "Duke of New York" flash audio banner?

2. How many people have stopped coming here because they were annoyed by that ad?

ANSWER:

1. EVERYONE

2. NONE

Nothing makes me go "HUH?" more than listening to people that want to "protect" or spoon feed "their" users. You (and everyone else) is subjected to annoying ads on TV and radio AND the internet every single day. Has this made people stop using these services? No. In fact, people don't mind ads as much as some would have you believe.

If you want to keep your users from being exposed to a 5 second ad then all the more power to ya. I will annoy mine since making money is the reason for the season. When I have more in the bank perhaps I will run a truly free, public service. Until that day: ads will be served. ;)
