Like Nvidia Shield, Amazon Fire TV is now displaying full-screen video ads, as reported by owners of Fire TV devices on Reddit.

The article says Google TV does this too but I don’t see anything like that on mine.
The top of the entire starting page is an ad. You gotta navigate past it to get to your apps. It’s so engrained in your mind that you don’t even realize it’s an ad anymore.
Aah that thing, ok yeah, you’re right. I guess I almost never see it because I’m showing family pictures when nobody is watching and then I press the YouTube button to open the SmartTube app.
yay user interface obstacle
On my LG I just have everything mapped to a long press on the remote, so I rarely see the home screen. Not that it’s showing ads (yet) but it’s nice to have that option (and much quicker)
