Hi, please let us know how we can improve further.

WTF is with autolaunching BLARING VIDEO CLIPS???

WTF is it with programmers autolaunching BLARING VIDEO CLIPS??? For 15+ years Yahoo has consistently been one of THE most user-unfriendly and inconsiderate Internet companies. Let US determine when we're ready to listen to these stupid little videos, preferably AFTER we get a chance to turn the volume DOWN to near MUTE, rather than making us scramble to hit MUTE. IDIOTS.

        What a boatload of CR&P - Yahoo Produce Support spams me with an email gushing about how they've heard our complaint and have "refined the feature" Huzzah... only they haven't addressed to dual concerns of blaring videos and autorun!
        The stupid videos still auto launch and they still IMMEDIATELY roll over to another often UNWANTED video before you have a chance to yell FREEZE FRAME!!!
        As usual, Yahoo thinks that patting themselves on the back is better than actually fixing something.
