Has anyone noticed how much product placement is out there? This is crazy, everything has a brand or something tattooed over it. Whether it is the 50 yard line, or the drink in a movie, or the lyric in a song, there are constantly products being mentioned, it is everywhre, do you guys get annoyed by this? Or is this just another way to cover the costs of the shows, games, songs, and everything else we like to enjoy? ...

Advertising if a misserable fact of modern life, and as long as advertising works we will be bombarded by it. It really doesn't bother me because I change channels, therefore don't watch commercials. I am really not bothered by the advertising at sporting events because this keeps tickets low. Can you imagine what viewers would have to pay if athletes demanded hugh salaries and there was no advertising subsidy??
