Hi All... ACTV's Spot On service is NOT a pop up or any other intrusive ad. Think of it as TV Commercial replacement. During the normal local commercial programming spots, thirty second ads are replaced by specific ads tailored to the individual household. There is a "rough" copy of the ACTV Spot On flyer given out at the NY show here: tiger-usa.com It briefly goes through the SpotOn service. Happy Investing, Tiger For lots more on ACTV see: tiger-usa.com

These "pop ups" have been very successful, originating on the VH-1 show POP UP VIDEO. Basically music videos are shown with those baloons popping up frequently with the artist's and/or the song's trivia, personal info, etc. The general audience watching these show's love this stuff. These are purely an overlay as someone else mentioned. The Millionaire show I watched was shot a few weeks before the Presidential election and some of the pop ups referred to that in past tense. Nothing like what IATV is involved in. Our only hope, IMO, for a successful year with IATV will be dependent on their ADCO biz. Good luck to us all. I'm buying some here at the end of the year for a quick "pop" after the new year begins.
