Reminds me of the horrors of ridiculous DVD intros you had to suffer before getting to the actual movie, then you had to watch trailers.

As a kid, DVDs and players that would deny the owner the ability to skip or fastforward though trailers/intros/transitions were my first memorable experience with deliberately user-hostile hardware and software design.

It had a profound effect on me, and I still despise that ethos every time I see it.
