They argue the RPM is higher, but the truth is, they don't have an interest to increase publishers' RPM (if you want to know why, see the article "big google squeeze" here on DNW). The true reason: they need to grow their display banner business (where they are still way behind), while in the PPC market they already have a monopoly.

They've found the RPM to be higher on these particular ads when they include them, so I wonder if it will be the same on their style of parked pages. They’ve been testing it for a while.

Guess it is now official and will stay for good. They won't ever add the image ads to parked domains, because the payouts on those is crap, a few cents, and most of the time is done on a CPM basis on sites that deliver boatloads of all kinds of traffic that is all over the place; social networking sites, etc. Seen this stuff on the bottom for a while now.

Why would they help us with the control of they market they have? It's time to squeeze us.....not help us. They have used us for growth and now it's a different strategy being applied, which is "crush you competition now that you have used their juice, or at least always keep them marginalized so they can't grow". I hope I am wrong though. :) I’m going to guess they don’t add them.
