Google's entire fortune is from ad sells. GoogleTV would make perfect sense. As a matter of fact, they're teaming up with cable tv providers to offer contextual ads customized for each household (which kinda pisses me off because I don't want someone keeping a database of stuff I search for and selling it, but its coming so we can't stop it). http://www.google.com/intl/en/press/annc/tv_ads_trial.html Why wouldn’t they?
