Commercials on Aural Moon?

I was contacted my a representative from another prog rock site. They've requested that we run a 30 second advert for their site. I was sent an .MP3 of their commercial.

I, personally, would prefer to keep AM commercial free even if the commercial is for a progressive rock site. When Jim returns, I'll discuss it with him. Even if Jim thinks it a good idea, I believe the commercial is too "in your face" like many commercial radio auto dealer spots. We've kept the web site commercial free and uncluttered with banners unlike other prog station sites. I believe we'd like to keep the stream as devoid of similar clutter. Even if Jim thinks it wise, I would have to balk at the current format of the commercial. A 10-15 sec. spot which is better tuned to a laid back prog rock audience is in order.

So, what is your opinion?
