Blu-Ray ad on NBC web site - Blu-ray Forum

Polyh3dron · 02-05-2007, 08:11 PM

I think it's well known that NBC and Universal Studios are both the same company(NBC Universal). Well I was at NBC.com today and noticed a little something:

Does this mean we'll be seeing Universal BDs soon? It may be a stretch, but if NBC Universal is willing to advertise Blu-Ray on one of their biggest websites, they are probably at least open to the idea.

I don't see it. There is a black square instead of Sony BD player.

EDIT: Appears my Firefox cannot play Flash 9. Tried IE7, but it is a different ad.

EDIT: Looks like they rotate ads.

It's just an advertising block. It's sold space to an ad agency. Nothing nefarious and no portents there. Both Sony and Toshiba have bought ad space with the major companies and such ads even show up on my site. Lionsgate does a ton of promotion this way I might ad.
