If you are prepared to pay two or three times the subscription, then ok, go ahead and campaign.

Alternatively do something to stop the adverts I use Firefox and Adblock Plus, but there are other options too. I see Candyman has mentioned something.

Ah but without the advertising would they use the excuse that the loss of revenue meant they needed to increase the subscription fees

Given I pay to utilise this service I object to having advertising banners and video wasting my bandwidth when using it.

I'm ok with Genesreunited generating advertising dollars from non members but when I'm logged in on a paid subscription I really do not see it nescessary to have flashing advertisements in my face.

If you think likewise email Genesreunited and tell them no advertising to subscribed members!
