[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3416600, member: 3099"] Right there with you and have been for a long time now. From a marketing POV it really makes one wonder doesn't it? Why would a CEO allow them to program in **** just to annoy and piss off their customers? One that really irks me is the News9 app for our local TV channel 9 (probably News6 for you, same Griffin Communications owner up there). They are constantly doing abbreviated news stories and saying further info is on their "News9 App" during their newscasts. Then you go over to get more info and are hammered with ad banners, popup ads and/or video ads before finding out not much more is there and there's no way around them. And half of them are them advertising themself! :faint: But they gettin them ad clicks man, they gettin them clicks. $$$$$$$$ I ditched Aaron Tuttle's weather subscription for this very reason.
