hey guys, not sure if you caught this article over at TechCrunch about the current state of iAds and "how it is something that the advertising community doesn't want"
anyway I found it as an interesting read and wonder if GS would ever allow us to use other AD companies?

Before you had to spend millions and Apple created the AD for you.
Now you can download the iAd SDK from iTunes Connect and make your own ads and Apple is calling small developers, if they want to advertise in iAd.
They are obviously desperate.
I've seen some GS games have iAds placed in-game, without any consideration as to where they'd appear!
Buttons are therefore obscured by ads - which makes the game worthless as you can't play it properly!

Well see how it does.
During the period of the flight, I must have accidentally touched the ad banner 20+ times. If there was a way to pay the 99 cents, I gladly would have!
Fast forward to now ... If. my apps and iAds, I'd make a lot of money! Imagine a four year old fooling around on some instrument ... how long would it take until s/he goes "this banner looks pretty"?
I have google ads on my web sites and to be honest, even they are often the same and don't change much.
The truth is that advertising is expensive and only feasable for big companies.
For us little guys, a controversial YouTube flick can go a long way.
craigslist, considering it costs nothing, is still worth the effort.
That's all I know :-)
