I think GMGC could do the audio ads in a way that didn't grate on the listener. I've called companies and had services spieled at me while on hold. So long as I'm legitimately on-hold, I don't mind. But I called my credit card company the other day to activate a new card and was put on hold for several minutes while they tried to get me to buy a new service. It annoyed me to the point that I almost didn't renew the card and contemplated dropping the service.

All depends on how GMGC does this, I think. There are less intrusive and there are more intrusive ways to go about it....
