My computer is hooked into my stereo system, an expensive, very powerful system that can shake my neighbor's windows.
So I'm sufing along listening to a very load Dave Seaman mix when all of a sudden some cheap ass sound effect comes blaring out of my speakers kicking in the overloads.
Does this make me go looking for the banner that made this sound? No it makes me just close all my browser windows before its next hideous sound effect so the only thing it does it make sure that I never see the banner.
Even when I'm not listening to music I'm usually on the phone doing business and the last thing I want a client to hear is "I've got the most exciting web site…"
