hm, not so sure about iPods specifically but cellphones....

I live in South Africa and almost every night I similar see ads on TV (late hours) - like: SMS "porn" to 34567 to download the latest striptease movie (I don't think they send hardcore porn though)

now in order for them to pay for an ad on national tv they must cover their costs and make a buck or two on top of that but ...... the resaon they can do it here is because there's no law that regulates that kind of content distribution and my guess is that the majority of the people that get the movies are teenage guys - so they go to school and braq to their friends, swap movies with them, or rub one out in the bathroom while watching it on their phones


a bit off-topic - the Asians (esp Japanese) are watching more and more TV on their cellphones - game shows, soapies, sport, you name it
