engadget.com — In a marketing case that just sounds too good to be true, vending masters Apex Corp. have purportedly laid out plans that will bring free or subsidized non-alcoholic beverage to thirsty consumers who are willing to watch a 30-second commercial before partaking. It is aiming to be launched in Japan next month.

^well this works in Japan but you bring that here in the U.S. its gonna become the homeless man's oasis. I got enough homeless dudes on campus walking around drunk and high trying to sell me trash weed and piss filled booze bottles. I don't want them building shelter around the vending machines.

They better not put one of these in a park; time to camp at night and drink over 9000 cups.

"Should be interesting to see how they determine if a person is really watching the video, or not paying attention to the machine until their drink is ready. Built in cameras to track eye movement?"In the same way that your TV does, assh**e...

Maybe, just maybe, that was the plan all along. You wait in line wanting to get a free drink (because its free right?), only to lose patience on line watching commercials over and over again by the guys in front of you. Then you just get frustrated and purchase a drink from the vending machine next to it. Afterwards you can gloat about the whole process and how you were suckered into buying a drink you really didn't need in the first place.
