Ads in ebooks might well be irritating. It depends on the intrusiveness of the ad, and consumer acceptance of ads.
According to a post in the
Smashwords Forum, "84 percent of people never click on a Web ad in an average month, according to Gian Fulgoni, chairman of comScore, a company that analyzes Internet behavior.
This behavior is changing as people are spending much more time reading publications through an app."
