ads are the porn of capitalism

I saw this quote from a director while watching that special on VH1, "Video Killed The Radio Star", about the history of the music video, and just really liked the quote.

And it's quite true. Pornography, like prostitution, is when a person sells themselves. An ad is the equivalent, as a company shows that it's willing to do just about anything to sell part of themselves.

I don't feel I have the ability at this time to do this quote justice... I think I'll come back later and see if I can write some more, something better.
