It's not.

The button is there to temporarily (or not) enable a tracker, when it's necessary for function - apparently, Ghostery decided the text is behind a tracker. It's strange though, I'm using Ghostery too (latest version), nothing enabled, and I didn't get the play button.

You're right, they did decide it's an ad - the div all the text in has the id "intelliTXT", who do that annoying thing were individual words become advertisements if you mouse over them.
