Yeah, they're so ubiquitous people have gotten used to them. Companies have learned that if you put ads in paid products, people grumble and moan but still keep paying for your product.

The future is ads everywhere, paid or free, doesn't matter. More revenue out of every user with little effort, shareholders love this stuff.

I recently installed windows 10 on my Linux box and the amount of ads in the start menu was shocking.

Though I guess it's no different than dvds having ads after you paid for them.
