In an age of bootleg everything it wouldn’t be hard to make the nexus ad free. Being a person that is capable of following instructions I would buy the even cheaper then 179 nexus lets say it sells for 150, load it with a normal ad free image or rom put on eBay sell for 400 make some money and save a buyer almost 200. Just an example of how easy that could be exploited.

In fact I am an Ad supporter. But they need to be really appealing ads.

The way I see it in print like magazine their are some ads that look like art and other I just don’t care so I just ignore them. It do not affect me in any way.

Tv… I have tivo but if during the forward I see something that looks interesting I will watched. Hell I even re-watch some commercial.

See ads make things you use more affordable in some cases free and you don’t have to even buy nothing only allow the presentation.
