Since I think the active player base is actually pretty small (less than 10K) I'm not sure how much revenue will be paid to MA as compensation for the ads. In the end, I think any affect will be small.

That being said, I'm sure MA will turn up the loot after ads start appearing to make sure everyone is excited about the concept and to help pull new noobs to the game.
hmmm
If there are little people playing it also means the profits gets spread amongst smaller amounts of people

So 300 000$ for 150 000 players or 20 000$ for 10 000 players, the effect is the same, no?

Great news BTW, I'm looking forward to seeing it working ingame
