Yes, and I cannot fathom how an entire medium could be annoying. A picture, sound, and sometimes some text. Yeah, really gonna grind someone's gears, huh?
A tiled picture, and constantly repeated sounds can get on some people's nerves very quickly. Different people have different tolerances for such things. Some are driven nuts by it, others enjoy it.

Anyway, there are plenty of examples of the importance of the medium over the substance in everyday life. You have to look through the medium to reach the content, and a bad medium can prevent that from happening very easily.
