It not like I'm not stimulated by audio - I'm a musician with a wide variety of musical tastes. Audio that accompanies Web sites usually just stinks. YouTube and other video sites are fine. I've had my PC sound turned off for the last 7+ years and don't think I've missed much of anything. One mouse or key click turns it back on or off when needed.

I am just curious what happened to the very vocal PayPerPlay crowd just a few months ago. Acquaintances I had barely known from years back, were in fact spamming my email with advertising for PayPerPlay. But now, things have fallen really quiet about it. And try as I might, I haven't yet come across any site implementing PayPerPlay live in action, although many people signed up for it, if I'm not mistaken. I'm not saying audio ads have no future, but right now, I don't see it becoming mainstream, and probably not for the next couple of years or so. Thanks for your comment.

PayPerClick ads are annoying because they are plastered all over sites, then pop-ups, same annoying issues, but you couldn't block pop-ups for years, and there is is still no way to get Google ads out of your face. With audio ad blips, guess what, you have instant control over them, if you are that annoyed, turn off your sound, simple. lol Funny,
