Yeah I realize you guys need to advertise but I think premium users should be able to disable them or something.

I get they want to have the logo there since the section is sponsored, I'm fine with that. I'd just be happy if they'd come up with a logo that's the right size and shape to fit into the forum's design, like Right Stuf with the anime section. That Iron Weed ad messes the design up and is a major eyesore.

As long as we get Blu Bargains, I'm cool with a sponsor image there.

Love the gigantic INETVIDEO banner at the top of the page. Wish Premium users could turn off all this garbage.

Just noticed that as well. Though if the site's going to have sponsors and the like, I don't mind the size/placement of this one.


Edit to add: Except I hadn't noticed it on the main page, only in the heading of the individual bargain threads.

iNet one is not bad (DVD Bargains) but the gigantic banner is pretty annoying.

I thought all of this was supposed to be blocked for logged-in premium users?

I'd love to know the actual numbers on what it costs to run DVDTalk and what the revenues are.

Ya know, at least we don't have that fucking advertisement that haunted us a year or two ago for that stupid horror film.

Didn't I hear that film was actually pretty good? I haven't watched it yet, but picked it up when it hit $5 at Best Buy.

Maybe ads do work.....
