So why are people OK with ads on the 360/One dashboard?

So I guess ads on your phone or desktop home screen would be fine too, since they don't take away from the functionality?

And yes, the ads do take away from my gaming experience. I want ALL my games displayed on the home screen for easy access, or at least sone games and apps. It keeps things better organized and gives me more control over a $300 console that I have to pay $60 a year just to access the internet and get ads from Microsoft.

That's the key right there partner. I just skip them and drive on. No bitching or nothing because if the functionality was compromised I wouldn't be skipping them or ignoring them.

So if your Android phone put the Google Playstore main screen on your phone home screen instead or your Appstore main screen replaced your iPhone homescreen, you wouldn't care?

I know I would.

 

Shoving stuff in my face to try to entice me to buy should be in the devices store and not the homescreen. A homescreen should focus on your content first and foremost, not make it appear secondary. This is the OP's complaint, and it's a damn good complaint, no matter how often you try to belittle his view and try telling him to just suck it up and fall in line.
