"can you think of anything worse when you are looking for something and you land on a page full of outdated articles and filled with Adsense and YPN ads designed to look like the rest of the site?"
The only thing worse I can think of at the moment is to land on a PPC page with totally unrelated subject ads to the domain name that was typed in the first place.
I can understand the ez part of using the ppc parking pages but isn't it true that the money is much better putting ads on your own page? Out of necessity most people will choose a higher profit.
Also important, in my view anyway, is that most real websites have at least some relevant content and are usually much more attractive than the ppc parking sites. I guess its just a matter of view point but the money is important. I, for one, had rather make more for myself than for the ppc parking companies.
I appreciate your input.
