Advertising

Is it just me, or do others agree that commercial advertising such as recent postings from David Gallagher have no place on CCL?
 
I have observed an increase in the number of commercial advertisements (as distinct from comments suggesting that one program/product does a particular task better or worse than another, coming from persons with no direct connection to the products in question) over the last year or so, and I think this has no place on this discussion list.
 
I may be way off base on this, so what do others think?
