Hearing an announce about the end of a side doesn't bother me one bit. However, for example, while reading a collection of three Stephen King novels, when hearing such a side announcement, the novel I was reading started over. This has happened in three different books for me. It's not the out of date side announcements that are troubling, it's losing my place in the book that I mind a bit. I can live with it, just wondered if I were the only one experiencing it.
