We suppose it was only a matter of time before advertising tainted the driven snow of the iPod.
The Adfreak blog reports it took only 22 days since the debut of the video iPod for a commercial to hit the player. And the honors go to the Home of the Whopper – Burger King.
BK and its creepy new BK mascot are sponsoring “Heavy.com’s Must Stream TV, which includes such apparently can’t-miss programs as Behind the Music that Sucks. Though the content will be free to the site’s 6 million unique monthly users…there was nothing we could find in the [press] release that would tell us what form the sponsorship would take.”
Adfreak asks the all-important question: “Is it worth having BK ads on your video iPod in exchange for not paying even $1.99 for content?”
