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

What's the difference?

Quite a lot considering that only appears when hovering over the "what's new" category. Press any direction on the D-pad and they'll completely disappear. 1 out of around 50 icons in the XMB are dedicated to advertisements, not 30 out of 50.

Also helps that those ads seem far more relevant to gamer's interests.

 

I only see there one advert which might not interest gamers: G.I Joe: la Venganza :P. Press the Left button or Right button and they'll completely disappear too.

Also helps that all those ads seem relevant to the gamer's interest. Especially the "Gratis" section ;)

Yet every screen on xbox has more ads, not just 1 cherry picked screen. And many are not even game related (Again obama debates, etc..).
