I have a friend who lived in an apartment in Melbourne - before and (briefly) after they put up a giant animated billboard next door. https://www.flickr.com/photos/avlxyz/13840260364/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/avlxyz/13840260364/ It looks OK during the day, but it's hard to adequately convey how incredibly bright this thing is at night, or how incredibly annoying it is to not be able to simply look out the window without high-contrast animated advertising right in your face. It doesn't help that they generally only run a few ads in a loop, over and over again. These things make housing anywhere around them a LOT less liveable. He moved out.
