Viewer requests for categories of advertisements or for specific advertisements may be processed by upstream equipment to formulate a broadcast schedule. Viewer may pay an upgrade fee for viewing upgraded advertising and/or advertisers may pay a fee based upon the number of times an ad is displayed.
