Virgin Offers Free Minutes in Exchange to Read Ads

Virgin Mobile USA is planning to give their cell phone users free minutes in exchange for reading advertisements. Subscribers could get up to 75 minutes per month of free calls, as long as they read an equal amount of ads and then respond to them via SMS. Virgin believes that this will be a hit with their target audience of people under 30.
