Long or short advert breaks

A film i watched on one of the 'zone' channels the other seemed to
stop for a advert break about every 10 minutes .

Granted the actual breaks where quite short .

But as i always mute the sound on advert breaks - this meant i was
constantly reaching for the remote control to mute the sound when the
advert break starts and unmute the sound when the advert break ends .

This means i much prefer long advert breaks .


What do you lot prefer - and why .

- long advert break ?

- short advert break ?


I prefer the way that Hallmark does their adverts during the early morning
hours. They show the programme in full, with no breaks at all, then they
have fifteen minutes of non-stop adverts.

Long or short advert breaks
 

Surely it should cover ANY channel that is part of the Encrypted Sky
Subscription Packages? Even the Basic one?

If they put up the sub's by 13% and stopped showing ad's during the prog's
would anyone go for it?

Since that'd only cover the 'Sky' channels and not the legions of
other channels like UKTV ****, UKTV **** + 1, UKTV **** 2, etc, I
think I'll pass. It's not like it's hard to fast-forward though the
ads. Surely nobody watches television 'live' any more anyway.

If 13% of Sky's income is from advertising then that wouldn't cover
all of the channels that AREN'T run by Sky, would it? (If you see some
sofa commercials on UKTV ****+2, that money goes to UKTV, not to Sky.)
