yahoo versus msn. Advertising

Yahoo!Xtra has a few advertisers, including ANZ, ACC, Qantas, Sorted (relationship), Visa, Pacific Blue, ipod+itunes (cool) and the realestate link goes (slowly) to a yahoo!xtra stamped realestate.co.nz. There are plenty of open advertising slots in many of the less trafficked sections, and the site is well set up for advertisers.

msn.co.nz has Seek, which is part owned by JV partner PBL and that is it. The news links go off to TV3 who have their own ads, but at launch it seems that msn.co.nz has no revenue.
(oh msn and TV3 – those links to TV3 are timing out right now.)

Hands down victory to yahoo!xtra. I expected and do expect much more from the owners of nineMSN.
