TV Junkie: Wednesday

BBCA's MI-5Last week we noted that the Dish Network has slowed with regards to new subscribers and now Dish has inked a deal with NBC Universal to present interactive ads to viewers. This could potentially bring them a bit more revenue to make up for the slackening subscribership by increasing the value of ads sold. You may have seen these ads if you have a Tivo - these enhanced ads prompt the viewer to click a button on their remote in order to get more info about a product or promotion. No word yet on the market value of this intrusion into the viewerspace.
