BBDO has created a clever transit ad that has a functional headphone jack embedded in it. If you plug in your headphones you can hear various samples of music available through pepsiaccess.ca. You can catch a glimpse of these posters and the sample the 12 songs in Toronto and Vancouver until the end of summer. And to tie in with this campaign every Pepsi comes with a PIN that can be redeemed for access to music, concerts, events and much more at pepsiaccess.ca. (GUSH Magazine)
