>>Do you think this idea will spread?

Absolutely. AOL and Yahoo get commissions from their commerce partners, too.

>>Will this impact Ad revenue for Yahoo/AOL?

Several of the commerce deals on Yahoo started as advertising deals, then became preferred placement/commerce deals...so I guess you can say that there's impact in the sense that the two categories compete. But the commerce deals are more lucrative for Yahoo so it's a good thing.
