It's a commercial. It is common practice for commercials to be annoying in some way so you will "remember" them. It is a known way to market a product and it works. For every person who types in this thread and swears up and down they will never buy x product again, 20 other people remember the commercial when they are thinking about buying x product and go there first. It's a fact of life and a fact of advertising and marketing.

Of course, saying I do this 100% of the time is extreme. But yeah, I definitly go out of my way to not use products where they annoy the hell out of me with their ad.
edit: I should have added what 4x4 wrote, to my rant. "when given a choice".
