You are of course right and I am not too optimistic about the possibilities of advertising either. I myself ignore ads almost without exception; I guess they still work on some people though. If fees and advertising are their options, I would still bet them having better chances on advertising. Fees just don't work on global, open-for-all p2p as long as there are decent free alternatives available.
