I notcied that, too. I think it's the first ad of any form I have seen on DropOut.
I have to admit it shows an understanding of me, as an audience member - I'm not mad that they're wholeasale transferring large sums of money from monopolist corporations to independent comedians.
It still makes me nervous that they will get greedy for the big corporate money, and start to comprise what makes DropOut great.
That said, I would not mind seeing an ongoing tradition where they just shovel a corporate sponsor's money to a worthy independent artist.
