If you put something out there for consumption on a public forum in a medium that allows me to determine how I consume it, then you are a fool if you believe you have any say in how I do consume it. You don't have any control in this matter and you have tied yourself to a business model that requires you to be able to dictate the terms of consumption.

I pay for my expensive bandwidth. If you attempt to pollute the bandwidth I pay for do not be surprised if I cut out the crap you try to force feed me.

If you can't support your business that's your problem. After all, the down side from all these businesses folding is that we go back to a web when such parasitic practacies didn't exist, well that sound like a deal to me!
