Do You Wish Ads To Be Played or Stopped?
Everyone of us are aware that while we watch any soap or business channel, there comes ads in between a program. At leisure times, it won't bother us. On other occasions, it's a terrible disturbance which can't be avoided. But from a marketing perspective, its one of most effective way to catch the eyeball of an viewer and making introduction of the product. Does this bother you and always wants to watch with or without Ads? I am just practiced to watch in both ways.

The ads do not disturbed me. Unless they are long and plenty and that will be unbearable. Otherwise, I am cool with it. The only discomfort is you will be kept in suspense once the program gets very interesting.

I'm multitasking and ignoring 95% of ads. If I'm not multitasking, I tend to change the channel to avoid watching all that junk. There's just too many of them now.

Being a member of this forum, I like the way ads airing in between programs to catch the eyeball. Otherwise, it never bothered too much.

Advertisement are intrinsic part of any television program as a propaganda material to promote a particular product. I never thought it's a viewing disturbance.

In the old days, they were part of the entertainment. A single company would sponsor a TV show and have a couple of commercials. Compare that to nowadays where you are lucky to get 5 minutes of story in between commercials. It's out of control and is very much a disturbance in my opinion.

I feel disappointed when ads are displayed during cricket matches and that too when the matches reach climax.

As a common man, we would like to watch most interested programs without any commercials. I think there exists a facility whereby you can subscribe to certain programs which will be aired without any intermittent advertisements. Otherwise with little choice of engaging with a program on the whole should be dropped.
