BattleNet delivers ads to players. I don't use BattleNet so I don't know what kinds of ads those are, but they are obviously of some value to Blizzard.
If they are cross-selling their own products, that's marketing they don't have to pay others to carry. If they are carrying normal ads from outside their game universe, then it is a simple revenue stream.
In either case, Blizzard is being denied the ability to deliver these ads.
This seems to be a minor point, however... Blizzard's primary concern seems to be that the private hosts let pirated copies of the games onto the network. - Posted by: Font Posted on: 09/02/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
