Fav Shows Loud Ads Tune Out

Ya know, I have found I like buying my fav shows on itunes. For the paltry sum of $1.99 I can enjoy them without the obnoxiously loud commercials.

When viewing normal tv programming I find myself using the MUTE button at almost every break. Would be wonderful if the ad companies realized interesting content beats out loud volumes and ringing phones/doorbells/repetitive catch phrases any day. Think about the successful ad campaigns such as the Geico gecko and cavemen. Funny, witty and very memorable.

On the other end of the spectrum you have that horribly loud and catch phrase repeating ad by that topical pain relieving headache stick whose name escapes me at the moment. I hated those commercials so much I swore to never purchase it even if it worked.
