This book is gold! Our start-up entertainment company has used the first edition as our essential reference book. We have not found anything else like it. We are excited about ordering the second edition.

Solid and comprehensive. The first edition was handy, detailed, and filled with suggestions on where to find further information. I'm glad the revised edition includes a disk. Highly recommended for anyone in the television, video, or CD-ROM production business. And not a bad price, considering the cost of other texts.

Just about all of them have entered the popular culture. It's fun reading and remembering how they sold their products and services and how much more emotional and impactful commercials used to be.
