I honestly don't understand the doom and gloom from this announcement, which essentially amounts to "leading VR platform tests new way for developers to monetize applications with personalized ad service". People seem to think this is Facebook injecting ads into games all willy nilly, when in fact it's just a platform for developers to add ads to their VR apps/games. If a developer can't make ends meet with a full up-front purchase price for their app/game, I'm totally supportive of them trying the ad-supported route. At the end of the day, I'm glad that Facebook/Oculus is giving developers access to this so that they can make their own choices regarding the monetization of their software.
