So im bored, nothing is on TV, decide to watch the xtra factor from the weekend (yes go on slag me, im a fan and Im proud) but omg the adverts are driving me up on the wall on ITV player.
I have sky, and watch shows I miss during the week online without the annoyance of adverts and I know ITV are shown at least of half of whats on normal telly but come on its driving me up the wall.
Tonight I have watched the xtra factor for half hour and it keeps crashing on the last adverts, can I get back to where I was watching, NOOOO, I have to play, fast forward and then watch the adverts, fast forward and watch adverts etc etc. Then it crashes again. c'mon give me a break.
Yes I know you will all tell me that I have a choice, fair enough but I personally think ITV need to get a grip and remove the adverts.:mad:
There vent over, let the slagging begin.
Ps GO OLLY!!!!! :cool:

Advertising keeps ITV free. The moment ITV stop showing Ad's you will have to pay for the service ITV provide! - Those advertisers have paid huge amounts of cash for a slot during the X Factor, you will just have to learn to put up with it.Official SOS Club number 011 - Dry until 17/11/20090

The adverts are deeply annoying I agree, my lass had the same problem a few months ago while watching Poirot. However, as said above, they keep ITV going with revenue - would you pay for it if it was advert-free ?0

Good points, they then should make it that you can fast forward to the different sections then to avoid me screaming at the screen when it crashes halfway during it (yes more than likely my computer than them) without having to watch all the adverts again.0
