A method for selecting advertisement in a Set Top Box (STB) of a
television network comprises receiving advertisement selection
information for one or a plurality of advertisement associations. Each
advertisement association associates an advertisement space with an
advertisement. The advertisement selection information corresponds for
each advertisement association to a value of probability for selecting
the advertisement for the advertisement space. A selection of an
advertisement for a determined advertisement space is triggered and a
random value or a pseudo-random value generated. An advertisement is
selected using the random value or the pseudo-random value, by selecting
a determined advertisement association that associates an advertisement
with the determined advertisement space and for which the corresponding
advertisement selection information has a value of probability that
relates to the random value or the pseudo-random value. The advertisement
associated in the determined advertisement association is used.
