Check it out.

Basically, pretty much any app you use will come with 15-30 second advertisements. If this were a free service, it might go over better but as the article mentions we pay an annual fee to access XBL and now we are having more advertisements thrown in our face for paying. Thoughts?

I get it with Hulu all the time. If it's just one time when you open the app, or with music apps, every few songs, I think it's fine. Guess it depends on the frequency.

I take it to mean more frequent advertisements in addition to the ones that exist on apps already (plus adding advos to apps that don't have them).

Damn your black heart, Microsoft!

I suppose the asston of ads in the latest dashboard redesign weren't enough?
