Branding, I think? They also get access to our across-the-aisle user base, so it's possible they're not losing too much revenue with the partnership.

To be honest, I've been surprised at the interest this project had received from major media companies. We actually were almost acquired by a large media company that wanted to build a new brand and put Read Across The Aisle as a central part of it.
