Pros and cons of Best Ads of the Week app for iPhone and iPad

Best Ads of the Week app good for

The comments about this app are totally unfounded, the videos play perfectly, everything works as its supposed to and gives as much information about the ads as you would want. The app is set up with kiss (keep it simple stupid) in mind it works very better than the podcasts because it is not just a continuous stream of video. Its now segmented so you can actually choose individual ads.
The app works just perfect for me, its giving you a complete description of each ad and the videos are super easy to download :)
Great for checking the best ads each week, the commercials download real quick, and the quality of the videos are pretty decent. Excellent App over all.

Some bad moments

Less than impressive format. Awkward to use, full of bugs & freeze ups! Please give me back the six-pack podcast !!
I payed and downloaded this app. After waiting for the video to play unsucessfully multiple times, I given up and uninstalled it. What is the use of this app if I can not watch the video? Do not buy and please post your review. This is a huge dissapointment.
I used to love their podcast. I waited for it anxiously every week. I finally decide to buy the app and Im very dissapointed. It is tedious to use, having to tap on the ad you want, and then tap again to watch the video. I would love to be able to dowload the videos to be able to watch it offline when I am on the go. I will change my review once this is included in an update.
This app would be fantastic if it was free. There would be no expectations. The infrequent ad updates wouldnt bother me. The non-functional Facebook sharing wouldnt matter. I would never have to remember that I paid money to be advertised to.
Did I say bad app design? Videos are poor quality, navigation is bad and the app has more bugs than a cheap siesta highway motel. These guys must have hired a student, have him build this app in less than a week and then overpriced it. Used to loooooove the podcats, but now hate the app. Should be put in the worst app made out of the best idea of the year section.
This was so much better as a weekly podcast. The app is slow, and you have to stream all of the content instead of a one-time download for viewing without buffering. You would also think the interface would live up to the standards of the best of marketing that they are displaying, but its just blah.
