MSN radio commercial | The Coffeehouse

I was listening to 93.9 here in Chicago and there was a commercial for MSN Money. It was in the form of rap song, and was pretty funny. I can't say that I have heard anyone do a rap song about investing and using a website for tracking your investments. I know there have been discussions on here about Microsoft needing to use different methods for advertising its products, and I would say this is one of the most unique methods that I have seen/heard from them.

I can't find it on the internet to share with you guys, but I am interested to see if anyone else has heard this yet.

Considering how poorly the name "Microsoft" or even "MSN" is doing in terms of customer perception / goodwill, does anyone believe (other than myself) should consider coming up with a different brand name? SYNC is good, but when you add "powered by Microsoft" (or god forbid, windows), it tends to cause people's eyes to roll.

Just a thought.
