Enough already with that one loud ad almost every ad break!
I have reported them to the FCC and will continue to do so. I ask that anyone else that is sick of it to please go to the FCC website and search for loud ads. It will lead you to the page that will allow you to file the complaint. If Roku wont follow the rules than they need to be made to and registering our complaints is how we hold them accountable.
Those commercials, as annoying as they are to you, are doing exactly what the marketers/advertisers want you to do, which is to talk about them. Love them or hate them, the marketers/advertisers want you to talk about them, which gives whatever product they are advertising attention.
JWS9518 I don't think so, not with these... I have no recall whatsoever, what show or network or product these ads are pushing, as I click away as soon as the shouting begins. All it has done, for the majority (at least of those posting) of viewers is anger them, make them think about never buying a Roku device or TV ever again, and believe Roku's sales & customer service really don't care what their customers want....
Considering there are over 90 million Roku devices out there, they are counting on the other users to notice. Even if there are some users complaining, there will be some that will check out the ad based on curiosity, which does exactly what they want the ad to do. There have always been outrageous, cringe-inducing, and/or annoying commercials (anyone remember the Whazzzuppp beer commercial) and that will never change as for a certain audience they get attention. For some people that will be annoying, others ignore it, and others will find it amusing and pay attention to what they are selling. It is those individuals that the advertisers hope to reach. I personally ignore most commercials, annoying or not.
