In App Advertising

[sinime]

Just curious what in app adverting service everyone prefers?

I had used NAX in the past, but stopped in favor of MS' pubCenter because the ads would sometimes show up as if they were zoomed in on NAX... Anyhow, since Sep. 12, it seems that the pubCenter only pops up ads around 30-40% of the times, so I'm considering going back to NAX.

Edit: I guess I should add that I did update the ads, as required for the Sep12 pubCenter update and that the error I get when the pubCenter ads don't show up, is generaly that there are no ads available. Oh, and I'm testing on a device in the US.

My preference is a paid app with no ads. If I have the choice of paid with no ads or free with ads, I'll choose the paid app to avoid ads.

From my point of view ads destroys the UI and better is create the paid app without ads (+ trail version - for testing)

Yeah, I see your point about destroying the layout... I figure the ads are more of a motivator to get people to jump from trial to paid.
