They'll probably spin it that revenues will go to developers and make apps cheaper? I think I saw a mention of that. But it's still as annoying as a V countdown timer on Lost.

Yeah that's pretty much what they did. Pretty much the only thing that could be appealing about the new ad delivery is movie trailers, but I don't know about including a whole damn web site worth of branded content behind every banner. :P

They're focusing on "wow, look at all the neat fun things these ads can do" but I don't care if it plays me a video of Han shooting first while giving m a reacharound, it's still advertising. feh.

That's not a good thing to say to someone with as vivid/visual an imagination as I have, you know.

I just put these things out there. What you choose to do with them is your own problem.

(hee, the "shooting first" double entendre was completely unintentional)
