Totally counterproductive - Blu-ray Forum

jermwhl · 06-15-2007, 08:52 PM

Okay, I know this is being totally anal, but i was just on dell.com and on their main page they have a banner ad of the movie evan almighty with a universal logo on it.
They are a BD supporter......kinda contradictive!

Just throwing it out there!!!!!

It's a paid advertisement, like the HD DVD ad that's been on blu-ray.com

dell doesn't get a say in what is being advertised....they get royalties from an advertisement company for hosting their banners...

it's basically whatever they decide to put up on the website....

When you search for bluray.com on Google, you get a paid link to

"Thelookandsoundofperfect.com"

Maybe we should pool to buy the URL and just stick that ash tray picture on it 24/7.

Count me in as well.

Sadly tho, the odds of getting that domain are slim to none.

I was thinking we could host the pic on my website and pay for Google Adwords to advertise it.
