ABSTRACT:
A digital radio stores advertisements for substitution during a broadcast for a bumpable advertisement within the broadcast. Upon detecting a bumpable advertisement within a predetermined broadcast period, the digital radio checks for higher priority stored advertisements—such as advertisements which were broadcast when the digital radio was not tuned to the station being monitored—and substitutes advertisements according to a priority scheme. Prioritization includes whether the advertisement has been played to the listener at least once during the broadcast period, and may extend to fee-based priority enhancements and tie-breakers or to selection based upon geographic location and/or direction of travel of a vehicle in which the digital radio is located.
