I don't see a problem with making an appealing ad and aiming it at an audience who will respond and buy your product. The Audi ad was aimed at young men who want to be studly, the GoDaddy at nerds who want to get the girl, the Budweiser ad at people who...well, I don't think those help sales all that much but they do enhance the reputation of the company.

It SO easy to stand outside of everything and throw stones.
