Why are there so many advertisements on this website?

[AC Question]

why are there so many advertisements on this website?

I was bombarded with no less than SIX advertisements in one form or another, simply trying to view ONE article, does this website have no respect for the people who want to use it?

Sincerely, Everyone.

Without the ads there would be no Android central. You don't have to pay for access to full articles like you do on some other news sites (cough, newspapers, cough), you don't have to pay to use the forums (heck, you didn't register an account even).

The people that write the articles don't do it for free and running a website costs lots of money on it's own when you consider the traffic this site gets. Honestly, there are ways around it but I won't explain those...

One of the benefits of registering is that there are less ads.
