Welcome back from your holiday weekend.
While we were watching fireworks, eating burgers and dogs, and hopefully not getting too sunburned, Apple was reinventing mobile advertising.

Just not sure how people are going to feel when they find out the ads actually LIVE on their mobile devices. Seems a bit flawed to me. The actual ad is awesome though.
I understand your concern but perhaps Apple is redefining ads as content. In radio, that’s an unorthodox way of looking at it, but I believe that’s the goal with iAd. Thanks for reading/commenting.
