This makes me a little sick.
If this product placement/word-of-mouth isn’t painstakingly obvious, I dont know what is. Why don’t marketers just make freaking tatooos of people’s favorite media and bands and encourage teens to put it on their foreheads and walk around??
Or wait.. Why not just target the “Influentials“?
…After all, the token “Z”-pluralization that’s come to characterize any product designed for prepubescent teens is destined to attract GAZILLIONS of teenagers, prompt them to build repulsive websites, and encourage their teeny-bopper friends to buy, in droves, substandard music, and movies that make society as a whole a little stupider than we currently are.
Sorry. I didn’t wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning or anything, but crappy products that add no value to their users vex me tremendously.
