1. A method comprising:
- receiving row ad metadata for a row ad including a material identification for video content related to the row ad at a content processing system;
communicating the row ad and the metadata including the material identification to a user device from the content processing system;
communicating program guide information to the user device, said program guide information defining a plurality of rows;
populating a row from the plurality of rows in response to the metadata;
displaying the row ad and the program guide on a display associated with the user device;
selecting a row ad using a user interface of the user device;
communicating the material identification to the content processing system located separate from the user device; and
in response to communicating the material identification, communicating video content corresponding to the material identification to the user device through a communication network or a satellite.
