Plus it just looks lazy.

It just wouldn't feel like my blog anymore.

Having a sidebar contextual ad with limited control or even an in post ad is alright because the blog reader can ignore it and still read some quality writing. But, I am not just too comfortable in letting the advertiser control the content of a post.. word by word. As you said, if I write review sponsored or not, I like to give my readers a honest opinion of the site. Advertorials doesn't fit the bill there. I can see why it would be attractive to some folks though. Nothing wrong with that. :-) You are right about this concept not sitting very well with many bloggers.
