I am all for advertising, however I object to having my bandwidth and time wasted downloading hundreds of mb of fancy flashing pictures and crap. I never block text based ads because they don't noticably slow down the loading of the page.

This, specially when ISPs are starting to tinker with bandwidth caps (at least here in the US).
Normally I don't mind ads as long as they're not a splash page (looking at you, GameSpy network), not one of those audio "Congratulations, you've just won fifty iPods!" annoyances, are incredibly desperate for attention, or crafty pop-up/pop-under ads. Wait, did I just describe the majority of ads? Crap.
