Great TV ads don't need TV

We saw it with Honda. The ads are so good that people seek them out online. W&K blogged that over 800k people had watched the new choir ad on the Honda website.

Now the new Crispin Porter ads for VW have provided further evidence.

UPDATE - Weiden & Kennedy claim over 3 million people saw the Choir ad online -in one month!
