A New Old Ad Model?!
Grooveshark – Interesting new model they’ve spun up here. I pay to be a VIP, which entitles me to not see their ads. First off, does that suggest that ad spot is worth only $3/month x # of Users? I’d have to look into their users but not sure that’s going to take them to the top.
Of course there is currently no advertiser so I’m only saving myself from an empty grey box right now.
Trying to think of sites that I love who’s ads I hate…tough one. If their ads were so intrusive I’d have found a substitute, right? OR…..
New Plan: Build up loyal audience. Start annoying them with crazy ads. Offer them a way to stop the pain that I have inflicted upon them. Genius.
Hmmm…then again….back to the drawing board.
