So Far Mobile Advertising Hasn't Taken Off in U.S. > Wrong Approach

Wrong Approach

Isn't that terrible that mobile advertising hasn't taken off? Goodness, I shall lose hours of sleep because of it. Other than that, right on!!! there phn102. When they pay the bill for my phone, the advertisers can have at it.

The problem is in the fact that there is still alot of extremely cheap built phones out there which makes it difficult to do ads on with such horrendous screen resolutions.

Even if they did (which it won't ever happen), it'd be temporary... just to get people to accept it! Then, just like every other media stream... ads would appear, while we still pay!

I spend over $100 a month on cable, in which 99% of the channels still have ever-increasing lengthy ads. I pay $20 for my wife and I to see a movie, that's SUPPOSE to start at 7:00pm, and at this time... I'm sitting there chewing popcorn, and watching a freakin' CAR COMMERCIAL AT THE THEATERS!

PREDICTION:

Everything going "smart" will start to blurt out ads at us. The "smart" house, advertising for local roofers, landscapers, air duct/carpet cleaners over the built-in intercom/radio. The "smart" car, telling us over the radio that there's an upgrade feature available for our car, or the features of the new upcoming model of their brand of cars. The "smart" fridge, telling me how Kroger, Albertson's, etc. has the best price to fill it up! The "smart" scale telling me I need to eat specific brands of diet food. It's a plague... and the more "smart" and "connected" we get, the more it's going to be forced down our throats (even if it's something we pay dearly for ourselves). Welcome, my friends, to the United Corporations of America!

Screen? Like I have a screen?

if they started mass cell ads in this country id be tempted to send the advertiser an invoice for the increase in the bill.
