Quark won’t accept any advertising in his bar except for his bar.
So Disney Channel rules, then? I remember in 2008 when I was visiting a friend and their kid sister was watching Disney, and after about an hour or so of it being on in the background while we hung out that I started to notice that the only things advertised on the Disney channel were all things owned and operated by Disney or a Disney subsidiary.
Isn’t this advertisement just horrible? Does it make you want to claw your eyes out? Pay up $20 per month to remove HALF of them! Thank you for always trusting us to do the right thing!
(not related to star trek, I just fucking hate ads and advertisers)
That’s more so amazon can claim they aren’t commercials, but previews to upcoming shows you might enjoy. Though I suspect that within 18 months there will be amazon shopping adverts based on your shopping history. “Check out this overpriced dropship item even though you already purchased a similar product 6 months ago and don’t need two!”
I’m reminded of the time a bunch of Mattress companies decided to build a brand on podcasts and gain a reputation for excellent customer service and pricing.
And then once everyone had a mattress, they went out of business.
