Commercials too explicit now?
Are ad's getting too sexually oriented? Know of any other commercials pushing the limit? So someone sent me this link and upon seeing it, I could only wonder why. Why would Napster, a mp3 service trying to gain its respect back from all the lawsuits, want to use a stripper for advertising? Napster Girl = www.napstergirl.com

The internet is one thing - as there are pretty much no restrictions or censors, but comon... How would you feel if your kid wanted to sign up to buy MP3s legitimately and saw this kind of thing while browsing mp3 service options.

Re: Commercials too explicit now?
The only reason why they do it is because sex sells.
