I know it says TV
but if anyone has a free Spotify account, the goddamn cunting Shockwaves talking mirror adverts have to be the most irritating interruptions I've ever had the misfortune to hear. For those lucky enough not to have experienced these abominations, the script runs something like: *adopt Scottish, camp, cockney or other irritating accent* "Hey you, this is the Shockwaves talking mirror, inside your computer! Your hair's a mess! Click our bollocks logo to win some shit or other, and send us a picture of your hair."

They must have bought up every available slot because for four weeks, that was all I heard...by the end of it I was going slightly spare. They were replaced by adverts featuring house music trying to convince me to be come a policeman. Fuck's sake.

Yet you choose to listen to them?
You could, perhaps, pay for the service? Or buy music you like?

I have the CDs in storage and the mp3s on my laptop
I just want to listen to music at work :/

Furry muff, I suppose.
But you could just do what I do and have a portable music player or USB storage?

the Spotify ads keep trying to get me to sign up for something called "Spuhddify"
it seems to be some rival service

I think that one's supposed to be better,
as it allows you to listen to music on your mowbuhl.

This is the reason
That I dropped Spotify like a great steaming turd. It'd be brilliant, if the adverts weren't the audiological equivalent of rape.

Ugh dear god
Worst adverts for anything ever I think. Especially the camp New York fashion guy and the 'Scottish' one.

I didn't like NME/Shockwaves before, I despise them now.
