    It's being done for the same reason you get spam ads and commercials in general. even if you hate it the fact that it exists has been entered into your brain. Even if you forgot about it completely your subconscious will still retain the name/image and whatnot. So no matter how badly it pisses you off you're actually more likely to buy the advertised product if you had to choose between a non advertised product and an advertised one.

    it costs almost nothing to send out these advertisements, so even if only 1 out of 10,000 tells produces a sale, it's still a profit. same reason you get ads to enhance your wang (even those of us who are fine on our own!) that you'd never in 10 million years respond to, if they get even 1 loser with more money than brains to try their sugar pills, they still make money.

    This actually makes a lot of sense, didn't think of that.

    Anyone else get these yet?
    Looks like they are all going to jump on the spam band wagon =/
