Ad Supported Gametap Free

I have never understood the allure of Gametap. Old assed games on a PC where you use the keyboard to control your little 8 bit sprite across the screen. Anyway...

In an interview with Next Generation, GameTap general manager Stu Snyder reveals the company's intriguing plans for the future, beginning with a new Xbox Live-inspired free service. Under this new system, users will exist on three levels. The Free level will be for any one of the "2 to 3 million uni ques per month" stopping by on the site who just want to check out a quick game of Pac-Man or Joust. The free games will feature advertising both before and after play. Some simple registration will grant users Green status, which maintains the ads but opens up multiplayer and other community features. Finally, there's the normal $9.99 a month Subscriber status that current GameTap users know and love

Gametap plans to open a digital storefront selling current computer games, I am unsure if Gametap will use a subscription based system or a flat fee system for this.
