I love the new Myspace design, but I just had to endure a video just to login! I haven't been back since my last video ad. I think Myspace is pushing that ads way to soon and way to aggressively. I was getting used to the service, but I wasn't hooked yet. Visual ads I can handle, but the audio/video ads are too much. Especially considering a good part of this content seems to be user uploads. My guess is that instead of using Myspace as a music listening service or a social network I'll be using it more like YouTube to check in and listen to something specific or follow a link. If I need to listen to an ad to login I probably won't too often. Too bad. I really like interacting with the interface, but I'm ad-sensitive. Ads are just something I'm not into.

Hey, I just saw my first video ad on myspace. That's a real mistake. It truly is.

Hey, I just heard my first audio ad on myspace! If I hear any more I won't be staying long. True story.
