48th Annual GRAMMY® Awards, kicks-off their second nationwide advertising
campaign on Internet jukeboxes throughout the United States via Ecast¹s
on-premise, interactive jukebox network. The campaign will run on over 4400
broadband-enabled jukeboxes in bars and taverns throughout the country.
The "Go Totally Live" interactive campaign will highlight The 48th Annual GRAMMY Awards and will run until February 15th, 2006.
