Mobile advertizing the wrong way
Get free voice minutes for watching a video ad sounds fair right?
Well, not the way Virgin is doing it: You get 1 minute free talk time for watching a 30 second ad and then answering a few questions based on the ad. That means you most likely spend considerably more than 1 minute wasting your time and getting brainwashed, to get 1 minute to talk for free.
What a lousy deal for the consumer!
