Ads and Software, where is the deal?

Walking through some latest online news, it seems that big companies are starting to think about monetizing their own software through ads. Indeed, this is probably a new frontier inherited by huge online advertising incomes we’ve seen in the past.
Giving away software for free is always very appealing for end users and could be a real launchpad for the business around it, like making revenues through ads, though. But I wonder, what’s better? A “one-shot” income or small “time-distributed” ones? And moreover, in what cases the latter could outperform the former?
