I’m puzzled. I don’t subscribe to pay TV here in Oz because I figure there’s enough crap for me to watch on the free stuff that I don’t need to pay. Lately though, as I watch free TV I keep seeing this commercial telling me how good free TV is.
I don’t get it.
I mean, what are they trying to do?
If I see the ad, then I am already watching free TV.
If I don’t watch TV, then I’m not going to see it. If they’re trying to attract people that don’t watch TV, they’re using the wrong bloody medium to advertise!
If I watch pay TV, then I’ve already made a decision to pay more than the nothing that I have to to watch what I want and so I’ve already decided that the free content that they’re advertising isn’t good enough for me.
What’s the frickin’ point? It must simply be there to annoy the crap out of me, because that’s the one thing that the ad is successfully doing!
