Ok, so we get targeted ads as opposed to random ads that won't even appeal to us....so what?

So there shouldn't be ads everywhere in the first place when you PAY FOR SOMETHING!!!  This is clearly a console that wants to profit not from having the happiest customers, but from getting the most out of the sheeple.  It is just wrong...

We have been getting them with 360 for a while now. Its just the way the world is moving. You buy a TV, you watch commercials. You watch a popular YT channel, you see a mandatory ad before it starts.

Your problem is not with MS, and I feel this is just people fishing for something to hate on them. This is just self-entitled BS.

You should know the real purpose is to have a unified instal base as opposed to 360 kinects. But that sounds too rational to be true right?

However, you can block ads on your PC or Mac when you're on the internet via addons. You can't do that on the 360 or the Xbone. That's a huge difference. It's annoying when you virtually pay for internet twice on the 360 or Xbone and still get ads. I find Captain Tom's complaints to be reasonable. I don't why you're being so defensive.
