There's no such a thing as good ads. Not even before the internet.
I'm actually going to disagree there. Where I live there is a monthly magazine delivered free to anyone who wants it. The magazine is 100% adverts and is paid for entirely by the people advertising. It's very useful when you're trying to find a plumber of sell a car or whatever.
EDIT: But you were probably being hyperbolic and I will agree that I dislike to see adverts anywhere that I'm not actively searchibg them out
In other words, the yellow pages.
