Apple iPod for Your BMW
Apple are developing a movement around the ipod - something like Sony’s Walkman culture last century. A classic TV spot promotes the seamless connection between the ipod and BMW. My daughter tells me she would just love to buy a BMW so she can use the ipod with it. Mmm…. the seduction of advertising.
The ad starts with a guy in an underground parking lot listening to his iPod through his earphones. As he gets into the BMW he connects the iPod to the car’s sound system. Immediately the music bursts to life. He browses through a range of genres, including grunge, hip hop, disco, jazz and industrial. As the music changes the musicans line up to get into the back seat.
The microsite introduces viewers to the details.
