From the recent videos released, the new interface lacks a fimiliar and notorious feature thats garanteed when signing on to Live, Ads!    I personally don't mind them, infact i enjoy some of them.

the ads i see are always fro things xbox related pimping stuff like gamerpics or themes (most of which are free from sponsors) so i don't really care if it has ads or not

they aren't invasive and they don't distract me so who cares

I enjoy the ads on LIVE, since they are informative and gaming related, so hopefully they will make a comeback

Ads on Live are mostly about Live including content releases and contests.  If not then they are things people are interested such as Doritos or Mountain Dew.  I've never seen a Tampon or Viagra ad on Xbox Live.

I like how it's been pointed out in the past that you pay for live and pay for Ads too. Like McDonalds.

Last time I checked when you login as a silver member you get Ads to.

FutureWeapons and Mountain Dew are very informative and gaming related.

Keep in mind, I also think Qore's paying for ads is dumb as hell.

The only form of advertisement I think is awesome is GTTV's episodes of Top Gear and Race track footage (I watch Top Gear every morning on HorsePower TV anyways, one of my favorite shows).

You know that you can turn off Ads in your settings right?

I didn't know that.  But they don't bother me either way.
