I also hate the animated ads, and like most everyone else use Adblock or Ad-art. But on a completely locked down device it's highly unlikely that this type of customisation would be available to you, since ads of whatever annoyance level mean maximization of revenue.
Devices like iPad are exactly what "big media" want, and if we let them it's just what they'll get. Anything inconvenient, be it torture pictures, leaked information or whatever could be erased from millions of devices at the centralized click of a button. Think you own that library of ebooks you paid for? Think again. Want to transfer your content from one locked down device to another? You'll have to pay us first. Think you have any fair use rights whatever? Not on this device, baby.
