... And rolls Royce does not put ads for the cars on TV, don't they get it??? Sorry, this blog post gets me down. "the objective is not to own the consumer, but to be their friend" so brands are my friends now? how charming, I wonder if so

I somewhat support this point of view, from admittedly selfish interests. I dont support advertising schemes online that dont give me (the consumer) something. i.e i expect online advertising to create a system where if I choose to click, I

I guess that is why the music industry got all up in arms about. that tiny minority who used Napster and limewire and such. According to some counts the number of this tech minority was about 80 million on napster alone, not including your
