AR>> Skipping ads at the beginning of a DVD is a technical issue. SU> But it is spam :-). I bought film, not ads :-). No, you bought a DVD, containing ads (teasers) and a movie. Without the teasers the DVD would probably more expensive, because they would have to run the teasers (sometimes called trailers for some reason I don't understand) on more TV stations to promote the next movie. That would cost them money. The first 15-20 minutes of time I spend in a cinema consists of ads and teasers in order to keep the admission fee reasonable. But spam is something else. I get this not because it makes my online time cheaper. I get it without any benefit for me. And that annoys me. <grumble> -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
