I dont think ad revenue was a source of income with the old live feeds, because they just shared the ad breaks of whatever E4 show was on anyway, did they not?
Yeah the live feed went into the E4 ads, but i don't think the E4 multiscreen feed had any ads, ahhh happy days.
Channel 4 seem to strip more away from the viewers each year, maybe a sign of the times, even itv's i'm a celeb get me out of here had no live feed on itv2.
