Advertising and slow server

leerees	Date: March 14, 2004 @ 3:55 PM Please can you not allow banner ads on dmusic that have sound, its really irratating hearing them. That one that says "account number dur dur dur dur dur, put the phone down and its done" messed up my work, i was trying to mix down a track and ended up with that in my mixdown! Also the dmusic server seems to be too slow now, im on a T1 connection but recently the clips buffer every 5 or so seconds. Anychance of dmusic upgrading their bandwidth?

Thaspian	Date: March 14, 2004 @ 4:18 PM Oh, yeah, for a first timer to the site, I'm sure they'd LOVE to hear talking ads along with their music. They'd run to soundclick.
djfacemachine	Date: March 14, 2004 @ 4:22 PM hmm... that's true. i didn't think about that.
robbydadrummer	Date: March 14, 2004 @ 5:05 PM Why would you be wandering the web while you were working on a mixdown, anyways? I think you should concentrate on that by itself without distractions...
djfacemachine	Date: March 14, 2004 @ 5:24 PM ah HA! good point
RyanS	Date: March 14, 2004 @ 5:47 PM I just got to the point to block most of the ads because of these stupid talking ones. One good reason I love Proxomitron. But the stupid side effect is that this site doesn't like it. Atleast I can allow full access from this site, and still block anything 3rd party

robbydadrummer	Date: March 15, 2004 @ 4:44 PM Yeah, I noticed yesterday pages were loading slower than normal, and a couple of times it wouldn't load up at all for me either. I had to leave DMusic for a minute then come back. I'm on cable here, so there isn't an issue with my connection. Anyone know what's going on?
RyanS	Date: March 19, 2004 @ 8:03 AM All I gotta say is I still love my Proxomitron. Had to surf here on another computer without it, and it's not the talking ads, but the intrusive ones (Cheap Tickets). They take up the full screen! Advertising is getting out of hand. A simple banner is fine, but when they start making them with audio, or use extensive java script to make them oversized, then it's too much. Hell with Fastclick/Doubleclick/etc... [/rant]
