CommodoreUSA Partners with Disney

[Duce]

MDG are a dodgy fly by night "pay as you go" Canadian company that offers "ONE DOLLAR A DAY for only 9000 days PC'S!"  Scum of the earth and even the Canuck television networks won't sell them ad time anymore up here.  ESET is a fantastic company, however.  I'd recommend NOD 32/Smart Security to anyone looking for a lightweight security package for Windows.  Coke, Crest and the big name brands would endorse abortion clinics if it sold products.  I won't comment on the C-USA crap much anymore, last time I did I got veiled threats and too much pedantic bullshit, so save it.  At least a few of those suckers that buy that hideous Tron 2 movie on DVD will look twice at the little pieces of paper that fall out of the DVD case.  I'll man up and at least give C-USA credit that they did start their ad campaign, even though I don't think even .1% of the guys that read said flyers in DVD cases will have a clue or an interest in a C64 clone. But good on C-USA for taking the plunge.  Just cause it's not right for me doesn't mean it doesn't interest someone else.  Best of luck.  The movie was abhorrent (TRON Legacy), maybe the box set will do well. Best of luck with the rest of the ad campaign, I hope the product hits the hands of the people that are after it, I'm just never gonna get the concept, lol.

If you are claiming a company, any company - did not pay for product placement in such a situation as this as a marketing strategy, I gotta laugh.  Disney (or anyone else) isn't searching high and low as "the nice guys" to invite up and comers into their partners programs free of charge.  If you are claiming that money or stocks/other assets does not change hands in order for, in this case - ad materials to be inserted into DVD boxes, we're living on different planets, lol.  That's as preposterous as saying all these popup ads on websites, banner adverts, etc. - that websites are doing it out of the kindness of their hearts.  Paying for exposure is paying for advertising and there's no way around that.  From films, TV shows and movies selling "product placement" in their products to stuff like adding flyers to a DVD, it's advertising and getting your product known, and it is not free for ANYONE, it's commonplace.  Semantics are silly, people pay to play, and paying for exposure is paying for ad space no matter how a guy defines it.  If money or assets change hands, it's buying exposure, lol.
