Study: No Ringing Endorsement for In-App Ads

According to the report, Monetizing Downloadable Mobile Applications, 54 percent of adults 18-34 do not welcome ads within mobile apps. The remaining 46 percent of respondents claim to be either indifferent to in-app ads or willing to endure ads in free mobile apps.
