    Not that Google was doing stellar with their rollout, but I haven’t heard anything bad from anyone who’s actually used the service. This is one of the worst things that could have happened with their service.

      I guess it might make sense from a vertical integration point of view. You could host your ads directly from your customer’s modem or something.
