I have to disagree. I've never seen an adult ad which can beat the top mainstream ads.

I mean, for example
Geico (the squirrel, caveman, speed racer)
Holiday Inn Express ("No, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night)
Budweiser (let alone any of the the beer company commercials)
Toyota (truck falling off the cliff, meteor in the desert)

The list could go on and on and on.

The companies that are hired for these new age ground breaking ads make millions of dollars for their work on just a single commercial. I have never seen anything like these marketing ideas used in adult. All I really see in adult marketing is blinking text saying "join now". Unless by "ads" you meant something entirely different? Please correct me if I'm wrong here.

Though... If you were talking strictly internet marketing, and not mainstream as far as TV commercials, magazine ads, and radio commercials. Well, If that is the case I would have to agree. Adult is usually far more creative than mainstream when it comes to internet marketing.
