More often than not when you are video content online, you suffer the dreaded spinning circle buffering icon. You’ve come to accept that this is normal when going online. But what if this happened while you were watching TV?

To promote Belgian telecom company BASE’s 4G service, the agency used billboards at the beginning and end of programming with the text, “You’re not used to waiting at home. So why wait when you’re on the move? With BASE 4G, you can surf everywhere as fast as at home.”

It would certainly be a bit disconcerting to see the dreaded spinning ball while watching “regular” TV so perhaps this did a good job grabbing the audiences attention.
