Well, the BIG problem with subliminal suggestions is that they
generally don't work - primarily because home playback systems lack
the dynamic range to play back the subliminal tracks so that they can
be heard by ANYTHING, including audio-equipment testing gear!
In other words - on playback on most home systems (including iPod),
the subliminal tracks simply are not present to be herd.
Also, the vast majority of research on subliminal recordings suggests,
strongly, that they function at placebo levels at best, if at all.

Subliminal Advertising and the Perpetual Popularity of Playing to
People's Paranoia
SHERI J. BROYLES 1
1 Sheri J. Broyles is an associate professor of advertising at the
Department of Journalism and Mayborn Graduate Institute of Journalism,
University of North Texas, Denton, TX
Every 20 years, subliminal advertising pops back into popular culture.
August Bullock (2004a) is the most recent "advocate" with his book The
Secret Sales Pitch: An Overview of Subliminal Advertising. This paper
reviews nearly 50 years of research on subliminal advertising and
comments specifically about Bullock's more recent publication. The
literature repeatedly shows that most effects are only obtained in
highly artificial situations, and no research has shown an effect that
changed attitudes or impacted purchasing behavior. Received: 21 June
2006; Accepted: 18 August 2006
