Video advertising is rapidly replacing pop-up ads on the internet as the way to reach potential buyers. The technology produces television-quality video and audio without the technical problems usually associated with streaming media across the internet (Lyman, 2004). The video commercial online format delivers full-screen, broadcast-quality video over the internet in the form of 2-megabyte, 30-second video spots from companies and advertisers such as Pepsi, McDonald's, AT&T and Honda. The full-screen advertisements use a patented precached delivery method whereby the ad is prepared during idle user time, and launched when the user transitions between two websites. The developers see the transition time between pages as the logical time to run the advertisements, which can be closed at any time by the user by just clicking on a close box the way normal Microsoft Windows are closed.

The video component attracts more attention than a static ad because of the movement and activity on the screen, so they will be more attractive to the viewer. It has been shown that people are more tolerant of video ads than they are of pop-up ads (Advertising, 2004), and that pop-up ads are losing popularity even with advertisers because of the many programs available to block them (Reuters, 2004). 2) Video ads will grow in number because they can deliver highly targeted advertising in a more personalized manner than pop-up ads or other forms of web advertising (Wegert, 2004). Customizing ads is important, and features such as an on/off button for sound and a Window's-like closing mechanism are important concepts to be included in video ads. Sixty-six percent of people find targeted ads less annoying than other ads, and 59 percent of advertisers will boost ad spending in 2005,
