More Ads on TV.
A new Scheme governing TV advertising comes into force on Sept 1st, under the old rules there had to be 20 minutes between ads, thats why a program which has only been on for a few minutes goes to an ad break, sometimes before the titles have finish. In new rules anounced by Ofcom, there can be adverts every 30 minutes in films instead of 45 minutes, and restrictions will also be scraped during curret affairs shows and programs about religion. Thank God for Sky+:eek:

Yeah I definitely think it is time to record stuff on the harddrive and start watching it 10 mins later
to be able to skip thro the adverts:rolleyes: |
Re: More Ads on TV.
adverts are a pain in the neck, you just get interested in a programme and it flits off for the adverts, it is impossible to watch a decent film, i know bbc don't have them, adverts that is, but it is a load of rubbish most of the time

Its a toss up. Would you pay a lot more for SKY,Virgin etc if it had no adverts ? Dont forget in theory adverts subsidise the cost of the programmes etc. So if the license fee is £150 ish quid for 4 TV channels per year, plus some other stuff. Would you pay £150 per year for sky 1,2,+3 ? What about UK gold etc ? Now what would be good is if you could chose the exact programmes you wanted to watch and got charged for watching them only regardless of the channel they are on. If you take the adverts with the programme you get it 1/2 price or something |

Think positive ... if it weren't for the ads, you would have to miss part of the show to get your beer, grab something to munch on, or go to the can;)
