itv player - doesn't get my future custom

You will not get anywhere on one watch again site whichis probably a spin
off from this one, you are charged 99 p to watch episodes of series such as
Agatha christies Parrot as my set top box voices it.

On another it proclaims you have to turn off your adblock software in your
browser to use the site.

Just used itv player for the first and last time to watch Broadchurch
Episode 1.

As regular users of it and this forum probably know, you cannot skip the
adverts.

Googling suggests there are paid for apps that will let you record it, and
thus then be able to skip the ads.

But what an arrogant attitude of itv's! Yes, I know they're paid for by
ads, but this is additional income they've already put them out during
transmission. And where's viewer choice? ;-)

That depends on if the views are counted and the advertisers charged for
them.

Um, without ads it's an additional _cost_ with no income?

I had that experience once, a couple of years ago, and was expecting the
same last night when I got on to Broadchurch ep. 2. However, this time I
was asked for my post code. Then I got the programme with ad breaks marked
along the time line, but showing only the sponsor's brief inserts (River
Cruises) and then straight back to the programme. I can live with that. It
looks as though the advertisers didn't pay for showing the ads in my area.

That's good kidology.
