I'm watching the AMA superbike race while I'm downloading rFactor, and those idiotic popup sounds for *every* damn info popup (and a whole selection of annoying sounds) have me ready to turn the damn thing off. What are these stupid producers thinking?! This isn't Pop-Up videos or something. I'm going to join the Speed TV forums just to bitch - add your voice if you feel the same! Kendt Yeah - I know, pretty petty complaint with all that's happened the last week - hit redcross.org while you're at it.
NBC is getting annoying too. The NBC Bing-Bong is now sounded whenever the on-screen changes from the scoreboard to something else. Stop it! -Larry "[email hidden]" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Fox last year finally got rid of that "racecar" sound when wiping from a screen graphic in their baseball games-used to drive me absolutely bonkers.
