I haven't seen that yet, but good for them for *finally* hopping on the free voucher bandwagon, if indeed that's what's going on.
I was in the Microsoft publisher program when they were still accepting beta testers, and there's a lot to recommend it - except the advertisers aren't there. I think made around five bucks total after tens of thousands of impressions. Would LOVE to see it revived with good advertisers.
Unfortunately, adCenter has a really time consuming and cumbersome interface, which is too bad, because they have killer support (just the opposite of AdWords) If someone could combine Google's reach and tools with adCenter's support, we'd ALL be getting rich. Publishers, advertisers, everyone.

Publishers ?..only if they made it available to publishers outside of the USA..until they do ..the rest of the world will promote Google..
But I suspect that Microsoft do not really care about what the rest of the world thinks about their search..except.. maybe they care about the Chinese market..

They don't even make it available to most of the USA. As far as I know, the program is still there but the beta is closed.

Why would they be advertising £30 of free ads?
Yep GBP 30, something must be going on?

Google AdWords has been doing this for a couple of years now - desperately trying to get new advertisers (in my opinion, accruing new advertisers seems more important to them than supporting their existing ones, but I digress) I get tons of vouchers every year, and I can't even use them because they're only good on new accounts.
And now Microsoft wants to up their advertising visibility as well, so they're offering an incentive to new advertisers to get going.
