I hate commercial advertising
And, what’s more, I hate the fact that it’s everywhere now. Today, a shiny new set of DVDs arrived on my doormat. I popped in the first disc, and was treated to…an advert, telling me to buy more DVDs. They used the “No skip” flag designed for FI warnings and the like to mandate that I had to watch this garbage, and will have to watch it every time my DVD player resets - 5 minutes of utter tripe, for something I’m not interested in, on a product that I just paid for!
Now, can someone from Paramount please tell me why I shouldn’t just visit my local Bittorrent hub and download what I want, rather than paying money for the privilege of being a captive audience for garbage? I very much doubt I’ll purchase a boxed set from you again, so that might be the only option.
