I’ve been waiting for them to come out PDF ads. Imagine what the e-book pubs will do with all of this. I can see it now ….huge rush of FREE E-BOOKS. Instead of MFA’s … MF PDF ADS! Should be interesting.

I for one don’t like the idea of these ads in my pdf files… but to get a paid pdf for free, then it might be worth it.

They are really trying to get ads everywhere. I have to agree with you though that the CTR will be low because the reader is going to be more focused on the document. However since it will be something new and different maybe it will attract more clicks.

This really will help out the ebook market. I’ve heard a lot of people upset about this but I think that as long as it doesn’t disrupt the content it is just fine.

I’m not going to tolerate Yahoo ads of any kind! The fools put ads INSIDE the email. That is just so wrong. First I thought they would insert ads between PDF paragraphs. Thank goodness it is not so. Yet millions continue to use their services. Speaks volumes about the average IQ on the internet.
