Given my social anxieties, this tactic could also spell my end. Imagine sitting in a restaurant, being served two identical plates of fettucini. The waiter says soothingly, "The one to your left is infused with arsenic. The one to your right, cyanide." "B-but, I want neither," you proclaim loudly, attracting the attention of other diners. "Sir, you must choose. Everyone is looking."
I don't understand this one because they don't have hulu in my country

Streaming sites sometimes ask you to pick what kind of advertisements you will see.
But the choice is pointless, no one ever wants to see advertisements in the first place. You're still going to suffer through them.
>>81691245
>>81691278
Also, the standard Hulu paid subscription still requires you to sit through the same advertisements as free users, so it adds insult to injury.
>>81691278
I assume it's just an attempt to get your attention for the advertisement
>>81691278
That seems even worse than one automatic advertisement because you have to go out of your way to click something every time
Hulu used to be fucking amazing till Hulu +
Then it became pure cancer...
>>81691314
The non-standard one drops all ad interruptions, though.

Worse for us, but the advertiser does it because by forcing our interaction with it, people are more likely to actually notice it and absorb it, like this monstrous idea
>>81692357
Man I keep wondering if any of this advertising shit actually works or if it's all just an elaborate con some very rich people are running on other very rich people.
>>81691173
Watching ads is slavery. Pay <10 bucks for ad free streaming site or pirate but don't waste your lifetime to watch ads.
I don't think I've ever used Hulu, but isn't this problem completely mitigated by using a basic adblock?
>>81692472
If there's even a small chance that some people will think of their brand over another, thereby increasing the chance of higher profit, no shit they'll do it.
Same reason I don't buy into most conspiracy theories: why concoct an elaborate plot to gain power and money that takes between a decade and a century to work, when this shit is as easy as 123 and boom, you're rich, and therefore, more powerful. Occum's Razor.
>>81693005
Hulu ads aren't like Youtube ads. Videos won't even play if you have an adblock on.
>>81692472
it doesn't hugely matter if you remember the ad positivly or negatively, what matter is you then associate the brand name with the product, to the mythical ideal where your brand BECOMES the name people use for the product, like Kleenex, or Coca-Cola, the point where their brand becomes the default choice you pick when you don't have anything specific in mind
>>81693009
That's not really Occam's Razor, especially since we know that some people just like to be overtly elaborate and manipulative. See all the pedophile crap in Belgium for example.
>>81692472
>>81692357
Did they patten this so no other company could implement it?
If I was a rich guy I would patten and make things like this constatly. I will never use these.

WEW LAD
>>81693489
>>81692472
Given my own personal experience I'd say the latter, but then I get to smugly proclaim that there must be a lot of retarded people who fall for this because why else would they keep it up?
>>81692472
I assume you know what Pepsi, Honda, Coca-cola, McDonald's, Star Wars, Transformers, Tic-Tacs, Captain Crunch and Kleenex are on at least a cursory level.
>>81693791
Why do you hound Whomp threads just to shitpost?
>>81691278
Not just that, they are often ads for the same thing.
>>81691245
There's a backdoor for international Hulu use by signing up through Amazon.
