Otherwise I totally ignore them. I’ve clicked on a few ads in feeds, but only when the ads were related to the topic of the blog. Otherwise I totally ignore them.

Even advanced internet users will click on an ad if it truly interests them. CPM ads seem like the way to go for the time being, but if Google is able to better target RSS feed ads, then I could see them making alot more money than basic CPM ads.

I can remember seeing them when they first came out and they sucked so fiercely that I'm sure Google has secretly scrapped them. They were images made to look like regular AdSense. You couldn't customize the colors or anything, and the click through rates that beta testers reported were dismal. I have Text-Link-Ads in my feeds now and it brings in a few bucks a month. In general I feel that RSS feed advertising is a bit of a lost cause. An interesting stat that I read Feedburner put out the other day: the number of click throughs on full feeds vs. partial feeds was almost the same. So maybe it is best to think of feeds a part of the net that pulls in traffic to your site, and focus on monetizing the site. It has been in “beta” and “full” for a long time (well over a year).

In general, I'd guess that your readers are typically advanced internet users and wouldn't click too many feed ads. I've got a bad case of banner blindness as well, but hey if you can make a few $$ off the CPMs it sounds like a worthy test. I use MyYahoo, so I wouldn’t see the ads.
