TiVo tests pop-up-style ads

Posted on Tuesday, March 29, 2005 by MegaZone

TiVo began testing interactive advertising tools over the weekend as it looks to appease companies wary of users’ ability to skip over ads.

Remember the talk of ‘billboards’ and pop-up ads during FF/RW over ads that went around before 7.1 ever shipped? Well, theeeeey’re heeeereeeee…. ;-)

Personally I’m totally cool with this, but I’m sure there will be screaming bloody murder by some.
