MS to release DashBoard Ads

Yea I was looking at this and it's pretty crazy. I mean why the dash board? And why give them ads on top of monthly payments and stuff. Seems to weird. I heard awhile back, Sony uses Home for advertisements since I remember seeing red bull ads some where.

Hopefully this is optional. Anyway just wanted to post this as it's 360 related news.

Microsoft said that ads are going to "enhance" the experience. Lol, we'll see. Doesn't matter to me anyway; I don't care about ads unless it makes my dashboard look like complete shit.

re: MS to release DashBoard Ads

I suggest you look at that image posted in the article you linked to, a few comments down; that image cropped by Kotaku or whatever is ludicrous. There won't be ads popping up like you see everywhere, including here on Neoseeker; it'll be separate blades under like the "What's New?" or whatever sections where you can select to watch a trailer for a movie, download promotional things for a game, etc.

Not a big deal.

re: MS to release DashBoard Ads

Lol Micro$hit is a bunch of assholes. If that picture in the Gamegrep link is real it's not too bad but it's just stupid and they should lower the price of XBL to free or something dirt cheap. Is that ESPNHD ticker something you can download for your dashboard? If so, is it free?

Quote from major nelson:
quote Major nelson


I’ve seen quite a bit of discussion today about how we’re bringing Silverlight ads to LIVE in the future.
I need to let you know that you don’t need to worry about a huge influx of ads across the dashboard. One of our core principles is to enhance, not interfere with the gaming experience, and we work directly with our partners to only deliver experiences that are relevant to the LIVE community. Silverlight will help make those ads a more organic part of the dashboard, like we’ve done with some of the NXE slots in the past. No one on the team wants to turn the dashboard into something that looks like like Shibuya Crossing. That’s just not good for anyone.
Also I found an ACTUAL image of how it looks:

This whole ads like a browser thing is wrong. What the ads will be like is like a demo. I.E you can go to marketplace, click on a film and then it brings you to that movies area where you can watch trailers for that movie etc.

http://team.silverlight.net/files/media/image/WindowsLiveWriter/SilverlightAdsonXboxLIVEAnnouncedatCanne_EE23/Cannes_2.jpg

So for example, this guy has gone to the Harry potter section where he can watch trailers for that film and buy tickets on his xbox.

That's a relief.

Hasn't there always been trailers on Inside Xbox though? I remember seeing the Crank trailer via that quite a few months ago.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. They might make the trailers more in-your-face or something, rather than just tucking them away in the Video Marketplace.

They already have Ads. Free gamer pictures like Dr. Pepper, Wendy's... I think Mountain Dew had one too. I don't mind those, I download them anyway.
